[cayugabirds-l] Cedar Waxwing nest
Yesterday evening, I unexpectedly found a nest of Cedar Waxwings near my mailbox. There were 3 babies being fed by both parents. I watched a few feedings and found it especially cute when one of the chicks lifted up its tail to reveal the yellow-orange stripe on the edge. After a few feeding trips, mom settled down on the chicks and brooded them; I guessed they were done for the night, so I left. Enlivened by that, I walked a little further down the railroad tracks by Cargill and saw 2 Yellow Warblers, a female Kingfisher, 1 Yellow-rumped Warbler, and a handful of Robins which were feasting on ripe cherries in a Black Cherry tree. Those are the highlights, but complete checklist is herehttp://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S11420337.

[cayugabirds-l] Brooktondale Nighthawk
At about 6 o'clock this evening a single COMMON NIGHTHAWK flew over my yard here in Brooktondale. It was flying in a southerly direction. I believe that's new for my yard list! Also this evening one of the GREEN HERONS and what appears to be a family of WOOD DUCKS are on the pond, Annette Nadeau Brooktondale -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
