[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2019-04-15 Thread Colleen Richards
Sorry for the late posting, but we were doing a day-long refresher training at 
the Ornithology Lab today and most of these are from our morning walk. Walking 
the Wilson trail loop around 10:30 we saw Pileated woodpecker, yellow-bellied 
sapsucker, and downy in a two minute span. Later we added northern flicker and 
red-bellied. A pine warbler was foraging through leaf litter and fallen logs 
for several minutes very near the trail (tried to re-find twice after lunch, 
but it was gone). Other highlights were a ruby-crowned kinglet, a small flock 
of rusty blackbirds, and a flyover by 14 double-breasted cormorants. Total of 
19 bird species plus many trees, wildflowers and other plants. Colleen Richards

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2018-04-14 Thread Diane Morton
Ken Kemphues and I led a bird walk around the Wilson Trail this morning at
Sapsucker Woods that included several first-of-year birds for us. A
NORTHERN ROUGH-WINGED SWALLOW was circling low over the pond to give us
good looks- the only swallow we saw on our walk.

Over by the Sherwood platform, two EASTERN TOWHEES foraged next to the
path. Seconds later a PALM WARBLER appeared above us, tail-pumping, as it
flew among the tree branches.
We also found several yellow-rumped warblers and two PINE WARBLERS. We were
able to watch one of them singing its trilling song.

Two FOX SPARROWS and three HERMIT THRUSHES appeared as we rounded the trail
after the Harper bench, and three YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKERS chased each
other through the trees, with squeaky vocalizations. We spotted both
GOLDEN-CROWNED and RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS and could see the colorful crowns
of each.

Turned out that this foggy spring morning was a great time to be out.

2017-04-28 Thread Brad Walker
In addition to the tanager there were several more migrants around
Sapsucker Woods this morning:

Baltimore Oriole, Warbling Vireo, Blue-headed Vireo, many Yellow-rumped
Warblers, Common Yellowthroat, Gray Catbird, Great Crested Flycatcher and a
group of at least 100 White-throated Sparrows moving through the brush.

I also watched a Great Blue Heron carrying a stick  as it headed towards
Route 13, seen from the powerline cut.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2015-05-14 Thread Anne Marie Johnson
It's fairly quiet, but I heard and saw a Bay-breasted Warbler foraging in the 
tops of the trees where the trail from Sapsucker Woods Road through the power 
line cut meets the Hoyt-Pileated Trail (at about 8:30). Earlier I saw what 
might be a Gray-cheeked Thrush on the Wilson Trail between the foot bridge and 
the Sherwood Platform. It flushed from the trail into the brush on the pond 
side of the trail. I got a couple of glimpses of a dark-backed, dark-capped, 
thrush-shaped bird with a smudgy face and upper breast.

2014-09-18 Thread Anne Marie Johnson
On the Wilson Trail this morning, I came across a warbler flock at the back of 
the pond around the little peninsula with two benches. Included in the flock 
were:

Magnolia
Blackpoll
Chestnut-sided
Common Yellowthroat

I think there were more that I could never get a look at. Yesterday morning 
there was a smaller flock in this area with an Ovenbird, a Magnolia Warbler, a 
Redstart, and a Carolina Wren. But at mid-day yesterday the area was quiet, 
except for the constant presence of multiple catbirds.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2014-05-14 Thread Anne Marie Johnson
Things were pretty quiet around the Wilson Trail, but activity picked up on the 
Severinghaus Trail between the Wilson Trail and the road. We found a SWAINSON'S 
THRUSH through here and then came upon a warbler flock high in the trees as we 
approached the road that included at least one BAY-BREASTED WARBLER and a 
NORTHERN PARULA. After the flock disappeared, we went across the street, where 
we refound the flock. We saw at least a dozen warblers foraging in the tree 
tops. Most were silent and backlit, but we found and heard BLACK-THROATED GREEN 
and BLACKBURNIAN.

Later on the wood chip trail that connects the Hoyt-Pileated Trail with the 
road, we found a GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH. This bird was very dark backed-from cap 
to tail, and it lacked face markings. It had limited, clear, dark spots on the 
lower throat and upper breast, surrounded by smudgy spots on the sides and 
lower breast. Like the bird I found before, this bird was very cooperative and 
let us study it for quite a while at about 10' away.

I'm still getting used to using Bird Log, so I didn't want my fumbling 
with it to ruin the flow of the walk. I posted everything later when I 
got home. I didn't mention it during the walk.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2012-03-10 Thread Paul Anderson


I led the SSW walk this morning from 9:30 to 11:00.  On the pond were 
three Ring-necked Ducks (1f,2m), five Wood Ducks and at least six Hooded 
Mergansers. By the feeder on the Wilson Trail a Fox Sparrow was foraging 
under the bushes affording very satisfying looks to all.


Further round the Wilson Trail someone picked out a large buteo-like 
raptor with a big head to the south relatively low in the sky.  We 
concluded that the available evidence pointed to it being an adult 
Golden Eagle. I last saw it descending in a shallow stoop.


After the walk, I went to Hanshaw Road where I picked it up again 
further to the south. This time I followed it through the scope for a 
little while before it disappeared behind the trees going in the 
direction of Rt 366 and Freese Road. I chased it again, but didn't find it.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2010-05-20 Thread Anne Marie Johnson
Sapsucker Woods had a surprising number of migrants this morning despite 
several nights of north winds. Highlights included:

Bay-breasted Warblers (3 males near where the two branches of the Wilson Trail 
meet near the footbridge at around 8:00 a.m., moving northwest)
Magnolia Warbler (near Sherwood Platform and later near the north feeders)
Blackpoll Warbler (at the back of the pond near the bench)
Wilson's Warbler (on the northern of the two branches of the Wilson Trail at 
around 9:00)
Blackburnian Warbler (same area as Wilson's Warbler at same time)

Other people we ran into also found a Blue-winged Warbler in the area where we 
saw the Wilson's and Blackburnian and a Yellow-bellied Flycatcher closer to the 
north feeders.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2010-05-06 Thread Jeff Gerbracht
I am borrowing Jeff's computer to post because mine is being worked on...

Sapsucker Woods was hopping this morning. Lots and lots of
Yellow-rumped Warblers but also a hybrid GOLDEN-WINGED BLUE-WINGED--I
think it was a Brewster's--it was mostly white with a blue back,
yellow wing bars, a yellow cap, and a yellow wash on the upper breast.
It was singing a Blue-winged song--still singing when I came in along
the northeast side of the pond. Other highlights--multiples of all:

Northern Parula
Blackburnian
Black-throated Blue
Black-throated Green
Palm
Yellow

Spotted Sandpiper in Fuller Wetlands
Yellow-billed Cuckoos-2-at back of pond
Wood Thrushes

And probably more I am forgetting.

Thanks for the computer, Jeff.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this morning

2010-05-03 Thread Anne Marie Johnson
Things are definitely quieter this morning. On a quick trip around the Wilson 
Trail starting at 7:45 this morning, I found lots of YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS, 
one PALM WARBLER, two AMERICAN REDSTARTS, and I heard a COMMON YELLOWTHROAT, a 
YELLOW WARBLER, and NORTHERN WATERTHRUSHES (one at the back of the pond). There 
were several HOUSE WRENS and GRAY CATBIRDS. I heard a LEAST FLYCATCHER and a 
WARBLING VIREO. The highlight for me was a SCARLET TANAGER near the Podell 
Boardwalk.
