[cayugabirds-l] Jetty Woods this morning
The Red-throated Loon was still present this morning (about 9am) just west of the white lighthouse. As I scoped towards the east I saw in the far distance just north of Stewart Park a bird that I believe was a Tree Swallow. I couldn't swear by it, and I lost it after about five seconds due to the great distance. Are they back? I had some other FOYs for me: Great-blue Heron, Pied-billed Grebe (about 4), two Double-crested Cormorants. -Paul -- Paul Anderson, VP of Engineering, GrammaTech, Inc. 531 Esty St., Ithaca, NY 14850 Tel: +1 607 273-7340 x118; http://www.grammatech.com -- 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/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Jetty woods Sunday morning
My first visit to the woods and jetty road this year found them dry, compared to last year when I had to wear boots. I did not find much variety of migrants. Many singing YELLOW WARBLERS and WARBLING VIREOS but a single BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER and AMERICAN REDSTART.

[cayugabirds-l] Jetty Woods Saturday morning
I went to the Jetty Woods north of Newman golf course this morning from 9 until 11. Beautiful shirt-sleeve weather with no wind. I saw 23 species including 4 warblers. The best for me was a blue-winged warbler, first time I have found it myself. I spent 15 minutes trying to locate a singing warbler. I knew it was close, I searched every tree and bush, and finally found it down by the water, a norther waterthrush. Every spring I have to relearn my bird songs. Another cool thing was seeing a pair of wood ducks land in a tree.
