I photographed what was left of the feathers and was told it was probably a
cardinal but I’ve never seen a nearly fluorescent orange cardinal. Thanks
to our Ravens we will never be sure!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Oriole

2020-05-03 Thread khmo 
It seems Orioles descended upon the Mecklenburg area this noon. We are
just uphill and southwest of Ken's.  While watching and adult male
Baltimore on an orange we almost dropped our lunch when, at first blush
a bird that looked like a very lost male Audubon's Oriole flew in to
displace the first. In and out of the Quince bush of course but Sue
finally got a few decent shots confirming what we believe to be a very
unusually yellow Baltimore Second year male with full black hood. To add
to the excitement we also had Western Palm, Yellowthroat and House Wren
arrive today. Yellows, Blue-headed Vireo and Catbird yesterday following
the Friday White-crowneds which were singing this morning. (eventually
will post the yellow oriole on my FB page).

Re: [cayugabirds-l] oriole

2018-05-17 Thread Melanie Uhlir 
Yesterday in the crabapple collection I got to see another gorgeous 
oriole and also got an all-too-brief but conclusive glimpse of a 
Magnolia Warbler. Heard but not seen were a Common Yellowthroat and a 
Yellow Warbler. Many robins were about. I saw one swallowing a food 
item. He didn't even notice me. Must have been a good snack!

Among other things on this clearly summer day:

The Ruby-thoated Hummingbirds found the newly offered feeder and a male was 
doing U-shaped display flights not far from the feeder area within hours.

An Baltimore Oriole nest is complete in clear view  (nice for us, maybe not for 
the oriole) off a cherry branch.  Not sure what stage, but males have been 
competitive for days.

A Black-billed cuckoo has been calling today, first this morning, and now again 
this evening. Hadn’t heard it before today.

A Willow Flycatcher is back exactly where one sang last year.

And the Mourning Doves are incubating their third (I think) clutch in our 
garage, this time right on top of my field equipment.  Fortunately most of the 
equipment in current use is in my car.

Oh—and last night I saw fireflies for the first time.
