[cayugabirds-l] 5 white-crowned sparrows
Seen in next to Hopkins Rd, 7:30 AM today. Some made forays into the adjacent soybean field. This is an unusual sighting for me. Are there more of them around this year or was I just lucky to catch a group moving through this area? I also saw a pair of BROWN THRASHERS in my back yard at 6:30 AM. We see them most years near us.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] MNWR Grebe vs Bullhead
Off Elm Beach this morning, west side of Cayuga Lake, a pod of Buffleheads - two males and six females - fishing in a leisurely manner as they drift south. Another pair hanging around in front of the cottage. Our 'flock' of Rough-Winged Swallows seems marginally larger this year, despite the lack of other swallows along the shoreline.

[cayugabirds-l] So you think you know your yard?
There's the Big Year, the Big Day... I know people who do Big Sits... And now, introducing the Big Yard. After finding out over the past few days, just by paying much closer attention, that my own yard can yield almost fifty species in a single day (and counting!!), I'm inaugurating a new game in the vein of staycations, small carbon footprints, making do, and discovering what's right under your nose: The Big Yard, May 7-31, 2014. Anyone can participate (so go ahead and forward this to anyone not on this list who might want to play). The rules are: 1) all birds counted must be visible and/or audible from your property 2) day tallies must be made within one day (12:00am to 11:59pm), with a new tally starting on the next or any subsequent day. At the end of the month, you submit to me, via email, your biggest day's species total, with street address, approximate property size, and any notes you want to include. 3) you can borrow a friend's yard if you don't have one of your own, but no one can combine two yards for any one day. 4) no calling Sapsucker Woods your yard! The idea is to stay more or less where you are. 5) you may recruit helpers (kids, partners, friends welcome), and your efforts may be combined for the same Yard. Be wary, though, of the enthusiast who lets her imagination create Little Blue Herons at her feeder. Winners may occur in the following categories, plus any others that seem necessary: Most Species in a Single Day, Most Species of the Game (5/7-5/31 species total) Best Behavioral Observation, Best Reporting Style, Most Yard Lists Submitted to eBird, and A Bird Poker Award (full house of woodpeckers? Royal flush of sparrows?)-- in other words, most birds from one family group. Prizes are TBA, but in the spirit of the game, they'll likely be no-marginal-cost and/or imaginary, and will include having your newly-won title announced formally to the venerable Cayugabirds list-serve, with highlights from your daring feats of observation. I'll be the judge, will not be allowed to win anything, and will consult experts as needed. I encourage you to submit all of your tallies to eBird!! Who says only the hotspots are hot spots?? Let's populate eBird with new heavily-birded locations! Reply off-list if you want to say you're participating or if you have questions. I look forward to hearing what you find. You can do this game even if you can only bird your yard once or twice between now and the end of the month. Think you have only House Sparrows and an occasional American Goldfinch?

[cayugabirds-l] LIndsay-Parsons Preserve This Morning
As I walked in from the parking lot early this morning I passed a full compliment of singing birds. It seemed as though most of the locally breeding birds had arrived and were setting up their territories. I had Yellow, Prairie, Blue-wing, and Black-and-White Warblers right out of the car. Then Field Sparrows, Song Sparrows and Common Yellowthroats across the first field. Catbirds sang from the bushes, and a Brown Thrasher from one of the tallest trees. A Chestnut-sided Warbler came in in the last field before the RR tracks, and Phoebe and Least Flycatchers called from the area of the stream. What really caught my attention, though, was the chorus that surrounded the bench at Celia's Cup. I sat there for nearly an hour listening to distant Cardinals, Ovenbirds, Blue Jays, and Robins, then several Wood Thrushes, more Black-and White Warblers, the same Brown Thrasher and finally a nearby Hooded Warbler. So what was missing? No Indigo Bunting yet, no Red-eyed Vireo, no Scarlet Tanager. I expect that by the weekend they will all be there.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] So you think you know your yard?
This may not be strictly legit, but for my own private, informal purposes my yard extends down the road a half-mile past the open fields, which my dog and I walk every morning. Thus far this spring I've got a royal flush of hawks: Red-tailed, Broad Winged, Marsh/Northern Harrier, Red-Shouldered, Cooper's, and Sharpie.
