[cayugabirds-l] Fledglings
My yard is once again full of Baltimore orioles and I am hearing what the bird apps say is a fledgling Baltimore oriole 2-note, slightly raspy call ! Saw the plain, orange-tinged bird a few times. Also have fledges/ immatures of Blue jay, downy woodpecker, cat bird and red bellied woodpecker.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] fledglings, fledglings, fledglings
Here in yard and near feeders Downy Woodpecker, Tufted Titmouse, and A. Crow (loud!) fledglings. Robin with eggs in bush by garage. She didn't count on the noisy, big door opening now and then. Flies off calling & upset. Donna Donna L.

[cayugabirds-l] fledglings everywhere--Oriole today
Hile School Road-Freeville One of several Baltimore Oriole nestlings became a fledgling this morning, and is now giving new meaning to the adjective “incessant”. Its sibling(s) are still being fed in the nest and I am seeing relatively little parental attention going to it. But the parents couldn’t possibly be missing it, as its call rate per minute is about 17 little ch-ch-chs of 1-2 sec each. Its like having a baby monitor that broadcasts your baby breathing! Any interruption could mean trouble. It didn’t stop when its mother trilled roughly (warningly) at me. But it hopped expectantly when its dad dropped a few liquid notes out of the tree well above it. Yesterday it was up and looking around out of the nest, after feedings. At one point in a gust of wind, it nearly lost it, wings outstretched apparently clinging to the entrance side that I wasn’t watching. I have not seen its sibs appearing over the rim like that, so there may be more than 1 day of asynchrony in fledging.

[cayugabirds-l] Fledglings of Common Grackles
Today I spent most of my time at home and in the yard. Whole day I have been listening to the begging of the young grackles and the way they make noise when the parents come to feed them. Even now they are continuously making noise. Also other birds of interest, a Purple Finch sang from one of my spruces for a longtime. A Red-eyed Vireo also spent much of his time in the yard. A Yellow-billed Cuckoo called a couple of times. House Wren has been weaving in and out. I don't know what is the story of my Catbird. In last week I have not heard the male sing in the morning, I attributed it to the cold mornings. But I have a catbird, and it makes a high pitched sound and meowing noise. The day the male catbird arrived I saw both male and female together. So now there are several possibilities. 1. The catbird I hear is a female and that is why she is not singing like a male. Has anyone heard a female sing in high pitched voice? 2. Something happened to my male catbird, hit by a car or eaten by a predator or a cat as I have seen recently one hanging around my yard. Or natural death due to old age. But he sang pretty vigorously. 3. He found another girl so he left the older girl for her. 4. Now may be the current catbird has a nest and she has laid eggs and that is the reason why he is not singing. But in the previous years he sang everyday. It is bothering me as to what happened to the male. Hope at least the female will find a new mate and they continue their family!

[cayugabirds-l] Fledglings!
Newly fledged Mourning Doves appeared in my driveway this morning. Brown Thrashers are singing again after a few days of silence, and I glimpsed some chasing. -Geo -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

In the past two days I have observed the begging fledglings of Phoebes, Grackles, Cardinals, Chickadees, and the defensive parenting of Common Yellowthroats, Song Sparrows, Hairy Woodpeckers, Field Sparrows, Towhees, and House Wrens. Still singing are Brown Thrashers, Catbirds, Indigo Buntings, Robins, House Finches. The season isn't over. Keep watching! Keep cool.
