[cayugabirds-l] YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER

2021-06-17 Thread Jill Vaughan
This evening a friend and I watched from my porch a YBS going back and forth between the peanut and suet feeders. When I first saw it, I went on All About Birds and also brought out the Crossley Guide for us to more clearly see the striking difference between this bird and a Downy or Hairy.

There seems to be numerous reports of sapsuckers in CNY this winter. In my thirty plus years living here I don't recall ever seeing one in the winter. Here in McGraw I have one visiting my feeders for the past few weeks. How common is it for them to winter in our area? Thanks, Tom Fernandes

This morning we had a YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER on our lilac outside our kitchen window. Gorgeous bird. I thought I had reported last week, but we had two FOX SPARROWS, scritchy-scratching on the ground. We also SAW a CHIPPING SPARROW, rather than HEARD (as I had reported on August 26th).

I was surprised to see a *male Yellow-bellied Sapsucker* visiting our suet feeder this morning in Caroline. Shouldn't they all have migrated further south by now? -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES

I believe I spotted a yellow-bellied sapsucker at my feeders in Newfield this afternoon. I could only see its back and head, and while I haven't seen many that close, I am very familiar with all of the year-round woodpeckers here, and it wasn't any of the usual visitors. I heard them in the

Hi All, Every once in a while I am fortunate enough to be able to conduct a 30-minute stationary count during mid-day at a point in about the middle of the woods adjacent to my house. Today was one of those days, and my count was the 47th half-hour count at that site since the beginning

Yes, the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker at my feeders was female, immature, and with the brownish feathers. I live within 5 miles of St. Anthony's cemetery (actually less, as the Sapsucker flies), so it could very well be the same bird that you saw. Someone who lives near upper Treman Park contacted
