[cayugabirds-l] Indigo Buntings

For the past 3-4 days I have had an Indigo Bunting at my feeders. 2 days ago, 2 INBUs were on the feeders. I thought that was really neat. Then today about 15 minutes ago, there were 3 Indigo Buntings at my feeders!! That was really cool! Stay healthy! Best, Ann Sent from my iPhone -- Cayu

We've had more orioles this year at our orange feeder (and sometimes peanut feeder) than ever - at least 4 males and 3 females. They also perch on our window mullions and are often sitting in the bushes near the feeders. I hope this is because they're having a great year as a species. Also we've

[cayugabirds-l] Warblers!

Inspired by Dave Nutter's post about warblers along the Black Diamond Trail, Ken and I decided to walk a section of the Black Diamond trail that is accessible from a parking area above the Cayuga Nature Center. Right away we started seeing/hearing yellow warblers, catbirds, yellowthroats and song a

Orioles, Rose-breasted Grosbeaks. Catbirds and indigo bunting (1?) and finally this am a hummer are turning my feeders into something a bit tropical looking. More mild aggressive displays than I have ever seen. Catbirds doing a cute little wide beak gape. Fruit update: grosbeaks and maybe cat

This morning just before 9am Jay McGowan sent a text rare bird alert about a Black Tern among the swallows off Stewart Park. I arrived a little over an hour later. On my first scope scan of the lake I saw plenty of swallows and cormorants but no black tern. After an unsuccessful binocular scan,

[cayugabirds-l] Special visitor at our pond

At about 5:30 tonight, as I walked around our half acre pond, I scared up a Least Bittern that was at the pond edge. I got to within 15 feet of it when if flew up in front of me, which startled me, and it flew 50 feet directly away from me heading for a pine tree. It flew into the pine, but I co
