A couple of obviously new migrants are singing in my yard. One is a Blackpoll
Warbler (I always feel a slight resistance to putting Warbler after the name
Blackpoll. It feels as if one were to write Redpoll Finch)
The other is a MOURNING WARBLER. Although its rich rolling song left no room

Our pair of Baltimore orioles arrived 3 or 4 days ago. I heard the male soon
after they arrived, but only got a glimpse of him last evening.

My counts were different from Chris's I will type in only those which I saw
more than Chris observed. I walk from southwest-end of the orchard so I may see
somethings differently than others.
Tennessee 10+ individuals
Cape May 3 females and 2 males at least
Chestnut sided at least 3
Blackpolls
Just a quick note from today’s visit. I didn’t devote as much time actively
birding today as I have on past days. But, it was a nice morning nonetheless.
Others may post additional birds which I did not see or hear.
Again, if you visit the Hawthorn Orchard, please submit your sightings into
We have found that nailing orange halves to the siding of our house helps!
Glad they are back for you!

I was at Montezuma today restocking Cayuga Bird Club bird guides and native

RED WING BLACKBIRDS, and possible WHITE-WINGED
The Orioles at my house won't eat oranges. What they eat is grape jelly. I
also get Catbirds, House Finches, and House Sparrows eating the jelly. One
year a Robin used to come. A Goldfinch tried it this year but found it not to
his liking.

Hi Cayuga birders,
It is known that some of the species of birds do not feed on sucrose that is
regular sugar and they can't digest those sugars. So all of them are not sugar
