[cayugabirds-l] Swamp Sparrow

2023-04-16 Thread Marie P. Read
A Swamp Sparrow has joined the chorus of birds (and frogs) in the beaver 
pond/meadow next to my property.
And the local Carolina Wrens have ignored all the other reasonable nesting 
sites around the property, choosing instead to build inside the (closed) lid of 
our propane tank!

[cayugabirds-l] Swamp sparrow singing @ night?

2023-04-14 Thread Alyssa Johnson
I was just letting my dogs out, and heard a brief bird song that lasted about 5 
seconds. I thought it was a junco trill at first, but I was half asleep so I 
wasn’t sure. I started “listening” with Merlin in case it sang again, and 
luckily it did. It was ID as a swamp sparrow, listed as rare where I am which 
is Searsburg Rd in Trumansburg. It was also 1:40 AM… I played the song to see 
if it sounded alike, and didn’t just take Merlin’s word for it. It sounded spot 
on to me. Thoughts? I’ll be glad to share the recording.

I also heard two screech owls counter singing a very low tremolo back and forth 
that Merlin picked up.

[cayugabirds-l] Swamp Sparrow

2012-04-08 Thread Marie P Read
This species has probably already been reported elsewhere, but there was a 
singing Swamp Sparrow in the beaver meadow next to my property an hour or so 
ago.
