[cayugabirds-l] Salt Point Birds

[Ann Mitchell]

Susan and I took a walk there this afternoon. Highlights were our first
ORCHARD ORIOLE of the year (maybe the first one back to that spot),
numerous YELLOW WARBLERS and BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHERS. WARBLING VIREOS were
singing the whole time we were there. At the west end of Salt Point just
north of the Osprey platform, we counted 5 PALM WARBLERS feeding in the low
grasses. I don't remember seeing that many there before.

Good birding,
Ann

[cayugabirds-l] Creek/marsh at Hile School Rd-Herons

[AB Clark]

1045 am--First I’ve seen for 2017 and the most adults at one time ever—four 
Little Green Herons were croaking, hunting and flapping around together over 
the marsh, and among the Salix sp., etc quite near the road.  I have never had 
closer looks.  Not a great day for photos, but if they continue as oblivious of 
watchers as today (two cars stopped, 3 of us gawking), they will be great fun. 

One pair has produced young there for the last two years; perhaps these 
represent 2 pairs and a small green heronry.

[cayugabirds-l] Eagle nest near Cortland

[rachelhogancamp810]

Hi,

I'm up near Cortland today and remember someone telling me about an eagles nest 
up the way. Does anyone know about this one? Where it may be found? 

Thank you!

[cayugabirds-l] Oriole

Today a male Baltimore Oriole showed up on the peanut feeder.  I haven't seen 
one on that before.  It's usually the jelly feeder they come for.

[cayugabirds-l] B Oriole/White Thrtd Sparrows

[Donna Lee Scott]

After dropping off Paul, our bird club fearless field trip leader, at his 
house, I went to upper part of Lakeview Cemetery where I heard, then saw, a 
beautiful BALTIMORE ORIOLE singing a really pretty, but unusual song.

Upon arriving home at Lans. Station Rd. later, I counted 10 WHITE THROATED 
SPARROWS (bright white as well as tan ones) scootching around in one of my 
ground bird food areas!  I have had 3 pairs of them here for weeks, but now 
must have their cousins migrating thru.

[cayugabirds-l] Blue-winged Warbler

A singing Blue-winged Warbler was the only new arrival I detected in my yard 
this morning.  That put an end to my thought of brush-hogging an area within 
his territory this spring...

[cayugabirds-l] Bird club trip to Park Preserve

[Paul Anderson]

I led a trip this morning to the Park Preserve; about 15 people took 
part. Although a few drops of rain fell as I was driving to the meeting 
point, the threatened precipitation failed to materialize, so we enjoyed 
our birding dry in cool mid-50s temperatures.


We started at the South entrance. Although we heard quite a few birds, 
this trip was remarkable in that we saw very few of of them. We heard 
Prairie Warbler, Eastern Towhee, several Black-throated Green Warblers, 
a probable Chestnut-sided Warbler, Ovenbird, Common Yellowthroat, 
Louisiana Waterthrush, Flicker, and Carolina Wren. We did get to see 
Hermit Thrush, Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, a possible Sharp-shinned Hawk 
(although it looked much too large, it had all the right characteristics 
otherwise.) Kathy arrived a little later and as she was catching up with 
us, flushed a Ruffed Grouse.


Of course, the more common usual suspects were there too: Chickadees, 
Goldfinch, Dark-eyed Junco, Song Sparrow, Mourning Dove, Blue Jay, 
Canada Goose, Crow, Grackle, and Red-winged Blackbird.


We then went to the entrance further North, where the boardwalk is. We 
immediately got treated to a few nice sparrows: Song, Field, Chipping, 
and Swamp. A Green Heron flew over; there were Tree and Barn Swallows, a 
Phoebe, and a couple of male Common Mergansers in one of the distant 
ponds. A Broad-winged Hawk and a Turkey Vulture flew over too.


Finally we used up our final half hour by going back to Sapsucker Woods 
so that we could see the White-crowned Sparrows in the feeder garden.

[cayugabirds-l] Hermit Thrush

[W. Larry Hymes]

As I just happened to look out our kitchen window, I was very surprised 
to see a thrush, which turned out to be a HERMIT THRUSH.  It walked 
along our fence line for a minute or so before disappearing.  We live in 
a residential neighborhood.  The bird had a bewildered look on it face, 
as if saying to itself, "Where am I? How did I get here? This doesn't 
look anything like what I expected."  Presumably it will find a much 
more suitable habitat before long!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Mystery bird revealed elsewhere, too

[Linda Orkin]

I always say if you don't line what it is it's probably a titmouse. One time I 
heard a very dry chuff kind of croaking repeated sound. Searched and searched 
and finally found the titmouse. Although I gotta say he probably was not going 
to end up with a wife with that song.

[cayugabirds-l] Mystery bird revealed elsewhere, too

[Antonia Saxon]

Too late to solve Betsy's mystery, but wanted to write to say that my 
sister-in-law and I went through the same sequence Easter weekend -- 
unfamiliar song, three clear identical notes, walked around block 
following bird but couldn't find it. We live right in Trumansburg and 
see the same bunch of backyard birds over and over again, so Occam's 
razor suggested it must be a bird we knew. It took us an embarrassingly 
long time to think to try titmouse. (Thank you, All About Birds!). One 
thing we got hung up on was the volume of the sound. High 
decibel-to-gram ratio, there.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Mystery bird revealed!

[Geo Kloppel]

Oh yeah, I've heard Tufted Titmouse do that! In fact, there's a recording of 
just such a song in the Audubon Birds app (Tufted Titmouse, Track #3), and it's 
pitched right on the open E string of the violin. Any violinist would notice 
the resemblance.

[cayugabirds-l] Montezuma visitor center shorebirds

[Jay McGowan]

The Montezuma visitor center pool has nice habitat at the moment and is
littered with shorebirds, including 75 LEAST SANDPIPERS, dozens of both
yellowlegs, 2 PECTORAL SANDPIPERS, 1 DUNLIN, and a transitional but mostly
alternate STILT SANDPIPER, always a rare bird in the spring.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Mystery bird revealed!

[Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes]

Hi Betsy,

I had skipped your description of "clear whistles" and got hung up on the sound 
of a violin, which can sound more wailing or moaning (to me) than clear or 
whistling. Tufted Titmouse was definitely the other bird of consideration, and 
I should have mentioned that.

Glad you found your mystery singer!

Bird sound ID - fun stuff!!

Chris T-H

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Bird song puzzle

[Christopher T. Tessaglia-Hymes]

Hi Betsy,

I'm not musically inclined, but Diane and I used an app called Cadenza to 
verify the frequency and replicate the notes you described, using a recorder. 
We believe the bird you are describing may possibly be a Mourning Dove. The 
past few mornings, they have been singing repeatedly in our neighborhood as 
well. The variable note immediately following the introductory note has not 
always been audible, making them sound like a series of E notes in succession.

Might that be your bird?

We were very impressed that you could hear this note in nature and easily 
identify it to a specific musical tone - something neither of us can do without 
the help of an app like Cadenza. :-)

Sincerely,
Chris T-H
