Nacho Areta, Mecky Holzmann, and I took a leisurely walk around Sapsucker Woods
this morning (28 April 2013), from about 10:30 am to 12:30 pm. There was not a
ton of activity, but it was a gorgeous morning and we had some nice birds. Here
are a few highlights:
Palm Warbler--1 at Sherwood Platfo
A few highlights from a trip around the lake today with Livia, Brad, and
Gabrial Rosa from Brazil (for whom all but a few of the birds we saw today
were lifers):
Lake Road, Ledyard - first Bobolink of the year and a surprising number of
Eastern Meadowlarks

We've never had a COMMON REDPOLE at our feeders on N Cayuga St but this
year, in late April, we have had a female coming almost daily including
today. We seldom see PINE SISKINs or PURPLE FINCHes but today we had
both. (The siskin has been here several times over the past two weeks.)

On Saturday morning (4/27/13) I led a CBC field trip on the South Hill
Recreationway in the Town of Ithaca. Our group of seven started out at the
Juniper Drive gate where we observed several foragaing Ruby-crowned Kinglets.
These birds were vocalizing everywhere throughout the morning and the
Hi all,
I couldn't get motivated to drive to Montezuma today so instead started
my birding at Hawthorn Orchard. The main area was quiet until I followed some
mobbing BLUE JAYS to find them harassing a RED-SHOULDERED HAWK. There were all
of the expected woodpeckers and th
I'm as thrilled as a new pappy to announce that the owl box I built and erected
last June, for the first time today was occupied by a red morph probably female
EASTERN SCREECH-OWL! Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. She (I'm being optimistic there are more
in the box) sunned herself all morning with that dreamy
Presented with many birding options this morning, my son Tilden didn't
hesitate - he wanted to go to Montezuma NWR. Over the years, I've been
losing the motivation to drive up there regularly, but Tilden alone has
enough enthusiasm for two. Just a few miles into the trip, he burst out, "I

Robyn Bailey, who helped put the platform up, is working with Steve on
locating alternate sites for the fireworks. The CBC's Conservation Action
Committee is supporting Robyn in her work and will help her in any way we
can.

I waited at the Osprey platform for two hours today, from about noon until
after two, and only saw one individual fly by the nest a few times. This is
the longest period during which I have not seen the ospreys on their nest
in the seven days I have been watching them.
Salt Point was loaded with
Goetchius "wetlands" becoming very shallow to only damp. Wood Frog and
salamander eggs, some with tadpolls already free swimming, in danger of
dessication. Funny sort of forested wetland restoration.

In addition to a nice diversity of migrants, including YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER,
OVENBIRD, BARN SWALLOW and HOUSE WRENS we just had 4 PINE SISKINS on the Niger

Just had my FOS White Crowned Sparrow. Yesterday I found a Ruby Crowned
Kinglet down by the creek on my property. Saw the pair of Purple Finches just
sitting quietly, for a long time, down by the creek as well.

So far the only new year birds for me here are the Great-crested flycatcher in
the woods and a Savannah Sparrow across the street.
21 spp so far. Still here.

A Yellow Warbler arrived early yesterday along with a large flock of
Yellow-rumps
(Myrtles) and Ruby-crowned Kinglets. On Thursday we had our first Rose-breasted
Grosbeak. All this despite the radar showing a relative blank the last couple of
nights.
