[cayugabirds-l] Catbird!

Last few days I have been anxiously waiting for the Catbird to come home. One day I heard some soft catbirds sounds but it turned out he was not from my area. Today as I walked into my backyard, I was thrilled to hear him, he is back! He is hiding in the rose bushes and singing with gusto. I wi

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods, Th 5/13

Most of the migrants in Sapsucker Woods on Thursday morning seemed to be in the woods, especially on the northeastern stretch of the Hoyt-Pileated Trail. A prodigious mixed flock here included at least a half-dozen BLACKBURNIAN WARBLERS, a BAY-BREASTED WARBLER (probable -- heard only), CHESTNU

[cayugabirds-l] CC lot Bay breasted warbler

I had a very cooperative bay breasted warbler in some low trees by CC lot, across from Clara Dickson Hall at 9:30 this morning. It was low enough that I could get good views without my binoculars. Karen -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://ww

[cayugabirds-l] Two minutes birding

Hi all, As I was just walking into the office building, I watched an Eastern Kingbird in O parking lot trees (near BTI). As I was booting up the computer, I saw a couple of birds land in the oaks and they turned out to be Yellow-rumped Warblers! Hope there is more to come! Weather seems perfect
