[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods this AM

Hi all, Today I took an early morning walk through Sapscuker Woods. It wasn't the huge influx of warblers that I was hoping for, but there were some good birds around. There were many newly arrived Wood Thrushes, some Hermit Thrushes, my first Gray Catbird of the spring, and many Yellow-rumped

[cayugabirds-l] warblers

In previous years I haven't had much luck seeing migrating warblers around my home, so I headed out early this morning to hunt some down. I didn't find quite as many as I hoped, though a CERULEAN WARBLER at Jetty Woods was exciting. Within five minutes of getting back home, however, I had

[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

[cayugabirds-l] Shindagin Hollow this morning

Lots of birds in Shindagin this morning... and one gentlemen dressed in camouflage from head to toe carrying a large gun. I didn't ask what he was hunting. I started at 8:00 and birded along the road to the bottom of the basin, driving and stopping here and there to walk around a bit. At

[cayugabirds-l] Tompkins Co. migrants - May 1

Cayugabirders, I birded around Tompkins County all morning and enjoyed the first real blast of neotropical passerine migrants, though lots of short-distance migrants were involved as well. Notable arrivals that I didn't see mentioned elsewhere on the listserv include Yellow-throated Vireo (Bruce

[cayugabirds-l] Finally!

Don't know when it first arrived since Kathy S. I were in TX a wk. but today I saw a WHITE CROWNED SPARROW under the feeder out on the clotheline arm. Ah, the scissor-tailed flycatchers in TX were beautiful quite numerous!! And what brilliant yellow feet the snowy egret has!!! While we

[cayugabirds-l] Prom night for toads

Following Tom's great Whip-poor-will find of yestereve, I was determined to be on watch at the appropriate time. I couldn't think of a better place to station myself than by the pond right outside my shop, a location that has produced 3 Whip-poor-will records in the past 14 years. Never

[cayugabirds-l] More Saturday migrants

Wow, what a day! My main contribution to the migration stories is from my early morning trip to Mt. Pleasant (although not as early as Tom!) to view morning flight at my favorite spot at the base of the radio tower road across from the woodlot with spruces. I was there from 6-8 am and had a
