Videos from Shindagin Hollow yesterday:

  Canada Warbler: https://youtu.be/GPuy91ZZhts
  Mourning Warbler: https://youtu.be/gxwW9fmE_kk

The mourning warbler was singing an interesting song ending with a loud
"chap chap chap", reminiscent (to me) of Northern Waterthrush.

[cayugabirds-l] Shindagin "Bittern"

2020-06-06 Thread Suan Yong
When I arrived at Shindagin Hollow's little wetland area, a largish brown heron 
flushed up to a tree. My first thought was "Bittern in a tree would make for an 
interesting photo". My first thought should've been "that's strange", as after 
slowly approaching the tree and scanning through the foliage I eventually spied 
some big red-ringed eyes: a juvenile black-crowned night heron!

Earlier in the woods I got some video of singing Canada and Mourning warblers - 
will share eventually when I get around to it (video is so much more time 
consuming to process than stills). Also heard but did not see black-billed 
cuckoo and hooded warbler, and got a quick glance of a parting red-shouldered 
hawk ID'ed from its call, no doubt the bird that triggered the continuing 
chorus of chipmunk "clucks" ("munking" as I like to call it) the whole time I 
was there.
