[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods Lincoln's

Not too much new on a quick check of the Wilson Trail North just now. The mosy interesting bird was a LINCOLN'S SPARROW that sang once at the small footbridge. I have tried twice for the campus Clay-colored without success. If anyone refinds it again, please post! Jay -- Cayugabirds-L List

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Stewart Park

An ORCHARD ORIOLE was just singing across the creek from the boathouse at Stewart Park. Lots of Yellow and Palm warblers around the swan pen. Jay -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods worm eating warbler

Gary and I just refound Brad's warbler in the same spot, above the egg cairn on the east side. However, it turned out to be not a Worm-eating but an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER, understandably confusing as it foraged high over the trail in the crowns of the trees, only occasionally giving its metallic

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Myers Point

The lake off Myers Point was quiet this morning with no sign of grebes or scoters from yesterday, but an ORCHARD ORIOLE was singing near the park entrance. Yesterday in addition to Ben's Red-necked Grebe I found six Horned Grebes south of the marina, but was not able to relocated his suspicious

The AMERICAN BITTERN is still present on the peninsula at the swan pen, Stewart Park. It's very obscured and hard to find, however. An EASTERN KINGBIRD is also present. Jay On Apr 30, 2015 9:06 AM, Stuart Krasnoff s...@cornell.edu wrote: Out in open on log at end on peninsula. 0900 h From the

[cayugabirds-l] Recent birds

towards the BOCES campus, a rather odd and seemingly brushy spot for this bird. Singing Fox Sparrow and lots of towhees were other highlights from a quiet and stormy evening. Good birding, Jay -- Jay McGowan Macaulay Library Cornell Lab of Ornithology jw...@cornell.edu -- Cayugabirds-L List

[cayugabirds-l] Little Gull, Mackenzie-Childs bluffs

An adult LITTLE GULL was just on the water off the Mackenzie-Childs bluffs just north of Aurora. At 855 it took off with a few Bonaparte's and headed south towards Aurora. Lots of Bonaparte's in Aurora Bay and off Long Point for it to hang out with. Jay -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:

[cayugabirds-l] White-eyed Vireo, Towpath Rd.

A WHITE-EYED VIREO was singing from the shrubby area on the right at the beginning of Towpath Road, Montezuma NWR around 11:00. Unfortunately it only sang for a couple of minutes before falling silent or moving away and we were never able to locate it, nor have we heard it again along the rest of

The male YELLOW-HEADED BLACKBIRD was back at Frank Morlock's feeders this morning at 1257 No. 1 Rd., Union Springs, just east of Wheeler/Davis Road. It was sitting above the feeders singing, visited the feeders briefly, then just flew south witha blackbird flock into the cornfields on the south

[cayugabirds-l] Lesser Black-backed Gulls

just around the corner of Herman Road. Much less expected were two female COMMON GOLDENEYE. This spot also has hosted a surprising number of Redhead during the past week, but the only one I saw this evening was at Herman Road. -- Jay McGowan Macaulay Library Cornell Lab of Ornithology jw
