[cayugabirds-l] Wood Thrushes, Northern Parula
Wood Thrushes are singing from several corners of my "yard" in the woods west of the Lindsay-Parsons Preserve this evening. In the morning I had my first-of-spring Northern Parula just inside the Preserve.

[cayugabirds-l] C.Loon @ Six-Mile Creek Second Reservoir
On an evening outing around the second dam reservoir of six-mile creek, I was surprised to surprise a common loon fishing at the mouth of the creek entering the reservoir, getting to about 30 feet of the bird who dove and swam away upstream with intent but not too much urgency.

[cayugabirds-l] House wren
Yesterday I watched a Chickadee building a nest in a box hanging on a fence near us. Today, just now, I looked out and saw a House Wren (first of the year) busily tossing all the nesting materials out of the box. Is this usual behavior? Do they usually clean house before taking over a nest box? Wrens nested in this box last year. Thanks.

[cayugabirds-l] Banner Day for Migrants
I had a great day for new arrivals today. Both the Catbird and House Wren showed up. Also an Eastern Towhee showed up for the second time ever at my house. The male Baltimore Oriole comes frequently for the shelled peanuts. Has anyone else ever had them come for peanuts? They usually come for the grape jelly. The Purple Finch showed up too. I haven't seen him in many days.i have four White Crowned Sparrows too. I didn't get a chance to walk around the property to look for other migrants like the Warbling Vireo that I usually get. Great day for birds!

I would be willing to wager that I just heard the Great Crested Flycatcher's "Pett!" our West Hill neighborhood. Regi "Love the animals, love the plants, love everything.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Hermit Thrush
Ha ha. Weren't you lucky! Well, we used to have an Oven Bird that moved through checking out our wood chip path where it found things to eat. If we all leave leaf litter around the edges of our properties they will find it worth their while to stop by. Regi West Hill in the city "Love the animals, love the plants, love everything.
