[cayugabirds-l] Link Info: 3 Mystery Calls!!
Hi Folks, No need for an account with Dropbox, which is how I posted the links. If a box comes up asking you to login or join, just close it and keep going. That is just marketing! Sandy \\\ Hi Folks, I could use some help with 3 recent mystery calls. (1) Sunday (yesterday) morning I went to Trevor Rd to look for the Red Crossbills that Kevin P. found. I did not see them, but in the same spot as Kevin, did pish and a bird called numerous times from medium-high in the trees, and then flew off. I never got a look. But it repeated a two-note "chirpy" call numerous times. Here are two from different lousy phone recordings, linked together into one cut. Is this a Red Crossbill? If not, what? I know most local bird calls, and did not recognize this at all. https://www.dropbox.com/s/bj6uexcftkdcyw2/Possible%20Red%20Crossbill%20at%20Trevor%20Rd.mp3?dl=0 (2) Along Deputron Hollow Road a week ago, I heard this call that sounded like begging. It occurs right at the beginning and at 6 seconds into the cut, and is a repeated series of about 6 notes. It sounds a lot like a fledgling Baltimore Oriole, and it may be, but I have heard many lately, and this sounded like a larger, tougher, bird, and was a more raucous and low-pitched call than the orioles I've heard. This was coming from intact deciduous forest next to a logged area. https://www.dropbox.com/s/p6bovlokv0uckuj/Mystery%20Begging%20Call%20Deputron%20Hollow%20Rd.mp3?dl=0 (3) The third call I have heard the last couple of weeks in Shindagin Hollow, along Trevor Road, and at Kingsbury Woods and I am quite sure it is a Broad-winged Hawk. But instead of the usual two-note, drawn out 'pe-w." This is a series of short "we we we we we we we" notes, but of similar quality to the usual call. Could this be a fledgling Broad-winged Hawk? I have not heard this call all spring or early summer, but am now hearing it around. Thanks for any help you can give me!
