[cayugabirds-l] orchard oriole

[Deb Grantham]

I thought I saw a male yesterday and confirmed a sighting today. Sheffield 
Road, Ithaca.

Also just watched several swallows chasing and bombing a red-winged blackbird 
male. He perched in a tree and they swooped around him a few times and then 
left.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole nest, Cass Park, Ithaca

[Dave Nutter]

In Cass Park there’s an Orchard Oriole nest being visited by both a female and 
an ASY (brown & black) male this evening. I assume this means there are 
nestlings in it. 

The nest is about 2 feet from the highest point of a young Sycamore tree 
growing along the bank of Cayuga Inlet at the SE corner of a grassy area 
containing a few remnant ancient Willows, and it’s just north of a small but 
heavily vegetated stream which passes through a culvert under the bike path. 
That’s south of the Coach’s Crossing bridge and the 4-sided birding kiosk. My 
guess of its coordinates on Google Maps is:
42.45084, -76.51153.

Anyway, if anyone wants to see Orchard Orioles in Ithaca here’s an opportunity. 
I watched with binoculars from the paved path, and had several brief views as 
individual parents came & went different directions to & from it. I don’t know 
if staring from closer would disturb them, but I urge people to be aware and 
considerate of them while viewing.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole at Children's Garden

[Dave Nutter]

I saw and heard this young male Orchard Oriole at the Children's Garden on the 
27th, although it may have been around longer. It sang from the edge of the 
woods above the bike path below Incodema and moved north through the Children's 
Garden singing from tree to tree and continuing north toward Union Fields. 
Yesterday I heard one from my yard very close but did not see it. Perhaps it 
was the same bird. Today I heard and saw it again in the southern part of the 
Children's Garden and the trees to the west by the bike path. Dang, it can be 
hard to see a green bird in a leafed out tree, even from ten feet away when it 
is singing loudly.



But there's more:



As I went north late this morning to Treman Marina I also heard an Orchard 
Oriole singing in the row of Sycamore/Plane Trees along the south side of the 
boat ramp parking lot. I looked and saw a young male - generally green, gray 
wings, whitish wingbars, and a black mask & bib. But, unlike the Children's 
Garden bird, this bird had a few brown spots down the middle of the breast 
which were the color of an older male.



Then in the isolated woodlot north of the marina close to the mouth of Cayuga 
Inlet I heard an Orchard Oriole again, but this time I was not able to see it. 
After I had given up and left, and I was on the south side of the marina, I 
heard it again to the north. I wondered if it might have been the bird from 
near the boat ramp, so I went back to that row of Sycamore/Plane Trees by the 
boat ramp parking lot, and again I heard Orchard Oriole song. I saw movement at 
the source, looked up, and saw an older male, all black and brown! I even heard 
him sing. This third male Orchard Oriole then flew across the Inlet toward the 
SW corner of Jetty Woods. I did not hear any other Orchard Oriole there at that 
time.



So, today there are at least 3, maybe 4, male Orchard Orioles in the area of 
Cass Park, Treman State Marine Park, and Jetty Woods.



BTW, eBird reports 2 Orchard Orioles somewhere at Treman Marine SP on the 13th 
& 17th, 1 singing on the 28th, and 1 singing at Jetty Woods today, all of 
unspecified plumage, plus an adult male singing at Stewart Park's Swan Pond on 
the 20th.



This is a lot for Ithaca, it seems to me.

This morning, a first spring male Orchard Oriole was singing

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole behavior

[Kevin J. McGowan]

I was watching an adult male Orchard Oriole singing along the circle at Myers 
Point Park this morning, and I noticed something I hadn't before. When the male 
sang, his black throat turned WHITE. When he sang some parts of his song the 
throat feathers were spread, revealing their white bases. It was striking, 
especially from directly below.

I put photos at 
https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/VUkCUjpT02rr2ASCZa9fpdMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink,
 including a pair from almost straight on that show the white flash pretty well.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Myers Point

[Jay McGowan]

The lake off Myers Point was quiet this morning with no sign of grebes or
scoters from yesterday, but an ORCHARD ORIOLE was singing near the park
entrance.

Yesterday in addition to Ben's Red-necked Grebe I found six Horned Grebes
south of the marina, but was not able to relocated his suspicious scoter.
At the south end, a white immature ICELAND GULL and a 1st cycle LESSER
BLACK-BACKED GULL were among the throng on the jetty.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Stewart Park

[Jay McGowan]

A few people have heard it singing over the past week or two but it may not
have been posted here yet. An immature male ORCHARD ORIOLE has been making
the rounds at Stewart Park, and Mike Tetlow reports that it is currently
singing up a storm in a sycamore right at the entrance to the park.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole SS Woods

[Jay McGowan]

An ORCHARD ORIOLE is singing over towards the Fuller Wetlands NW of the
building right now, perhaps the same bird France saw earlier. It's almost
annual now that an immature male shows up at Sapsucker Woods, I will check
in a little while to see if I can get a look at this bird.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Myers Point

[Jay McGowan]

At least one ORCHARD ORIOLE has returned to Myers Point. An adult male was
singing cheerily from near the entrance, then foraging and singing from
cottonwoods over the camping area and then from across the creek on Salt
Point. Not much moving on the lake, but at least five HORNED GREBES are
still around. Two immature BONAPARTE'S GULLS and a 1st cycle LESSER
BLACK-BACKED GULL were also on and around the spit, and Robin's adult
BLACK-CROWNED NIGHT-HERON continued in the marsh near Ladoga.

Palm Warblers were thick at Stewart Park this morning as well, with at
least *11* foraging on the lawn between the tennis courts and the swan pen
and another handful singing along the south edge of the swan pen with
Yellow, Yellow-rumped, and Nashville warblers.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Myers Point

[Jay McGowan]

The lake was pretty quiet this morning at Myers Point and Stewart Park. A
breeding plumage HORNED GREBE continues south of the marina. Highlight was
an unseen ORCHARD ORIOLE that sang vigorously for a few minutes then went
silent somewhere towards the entrance or center of the park. Some good
warblers on the west side of Sapsucker Woods a little later in the morning,
including Black-throated Blue, Black-throated Green, Blackburnian,
Nashville, Yellow-rumped, and Northern Waterthrush.

Good birding,

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard oriole, barn swallows, and meadowlarks

[M K Mannella]

The ORCHARD ORIOLE (I assume the same one) that nested in our yard was back 
this morning singing loudly from a large maple. In May he was actively 
defending a nest then all went quiet. Not sure if there was a successful fledge 
or not. Today is the first time I've seen or heard him since the first days of 
June.  What a nice surprise to hear his joyful song again! 

BARN SWALLOWS are fledging as I type.at least one nest has seven heads 
sticking out this morning. 

And we have a MEADOWKARK in the general vicinity that I can hear from my yard. 
That is a very rare event. Perhaps they like the army worms..

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole nest

[Michele Mannella]

After checking a few sources (Thanks, Jay and others!)  and an intense hour of 
waiting and watching, I am excited to confirm a nesting ORCHARD ORIOLE in my 
front yard.

Noticing the female working and weaving a nest in a fork at the top of a small 
maple tree, the ID was confirmed when I saw both the female and the male 
together. She's slightly bigger than the male, and greener than a female 
baltimore. He's very dark ruby and black and not easy to spot.  Getting clear 
views was challenging but my patience paid off-- Just like the Baltimore 
orioles, they are very good at hiding in plain sight, seeming to know exactly 
which leaves will keep them hidden from view.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole question

[Betsy Darlington]

This AM I was on the E. Ithaca Rec. Trail (the one that goes to Game Farm
Rd.). I heard a single clear loud call note, all one pitch, and repeated
several times over a period of several minutes. The quality of the sound
was much like that of a Balt. Oriole, but when I finally spotted the bird,
it didn't look like that, but maybe an Orchard Oriole.  Has anyone seen one
there recently?  It was in the eastern section of the trail, east of the
constructed wetland.
Betsy

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, Sapsucker Woods

[Jay McGowan]

Hi all,
The young male ORCHARD ORIOLE that Ken found a little while ago was
still singing as of a few minutes ago, now across the pond in the
Fuller Wetlands, close to the white barn.  I never got the original
email, so I thought I would send this out in case others had the same
problem.

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole - Sapsucker Woods

[Scott Haber]

Susan Newman and I just spent a few minutes watching the young male Orchard
Oriole with Mark Chao at Sapsucker Woods.  The bird was singing constantly,
spending most of his time in the trees in the gravel parking area at Kip's
Barn (on the east side of the building).  Several times, he flew north
across Sapsucker Woods Road to the flowering Black Locusts on the hill just
across the road from the barn.  It was interesting to note that the bird was
singing in flight as well, something I've never noticed in previous
encounters with this species.  Mark also noticed that the bird is starting
to show streaks of the chestnut-brown on his breast that will be more
extensive as a full adult.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole - Sapsucker Woods

[Riko Stan]

I saw an Orchard Oriole today as well, my very first!
We have a hummingbird feeder up by a huge window in the living room. I had
the screen down so I could clean it and as I was walking back to put the
screen back in I saw a small-medium sized bird sitting on the hummingbird
feeder. Something scared it(probably me) and it flew right in the house.
Both the cat and dog instantly started chasing the poor guy, so he flew into
windows multiple times before I could get the animals out of the room. I
opened all the windows, let him sit for a few minutes, then gently shooed
him out. He flew off just fine, so I hope he wasn't to hurt, but I got a
great close up view of him.

LOL! as I am writing this, a female cardinal flew into the room too. There
is the last suet cake right by the hummingbird feeder too. The female
cardinal usually hits it a few times a day, today she flew right in, did a
big loop into the dining room, and flew out another window.
Guess I better put the screens back up!

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole M and F at 1230

[Chris Pelkie]

Thanks for the heads-up on the Orchard Oriole. He was still singing a lot from 
perches in a big circle around Kipps driveway, including landing in the tree 
right over my head for a couple phrases. I spotted a female at first, then 
realized it wasn't the singer, so there are at least 2 there as of 1230pm. 
Excellent looks and nice song!

[cayugabirds-l] Orchard Oriole, shorebirds - Montezuma area

[Jay McGowan]

While my compatriots watched the Germany vs. Argentina match in Seneca
Falls, I checked a few other spots around the area.  The best bird was a
singing 1st year male ORCHARD ORIOLE right at the end of Van Dyne Spoor Road
in Wayne County.  Although they are almost always present and occasionally
common along the east shore of Cayuga Lake (and perhaps parts of the west
side too), this may be the first time I have seen this species in the
Montezuma Wetlands Complex.

Other birds in the morning included the family of Sandhill Cranes at East
Venice Road and Rt. 90 in Genoa (2 adults and 2 well-grown chicks.)  The
Knox-Marsellus Marsh as viewed from both East Road and Towpath Road had a
decent variety of shorebirds, including 10+ Lesser Yellowlegs, 2+ Greater
Yellowlegs, 6+ Least Sandpipers, several Killdeer, and at least one Solitary
Sandpiper.  Three Sandhill Cranes were also out in marsh.  Duck were also in
(comparatively) good numbers here, with Green-winged Teal, Blue-winged Teal,
Gadwall, American Wigeon, Northern Shoveler, and Wood Duck present.

Cayugabirders,
Punctuated by a break to watch the heartbreaking World Cup
quarterfinal match, Chris Wiley, Tim Lenz, Jay McGowan, and I birded
around Seneca Falls and Montezuma this morning.  The clear highlight
was an adult Tundra Swan loafing close to the tower at Tschache Pool,
Montezuma NWR.  We photographed the bird, which showed a typical
scooped Tundra Swan bill/ face shape, yellow loral spots, and a
u-shaped forehead border to the facial skin; also interesting at
Tschache were the two adult Trumpeter Swans trailing 7 chicks behind
them at Tschache (and another pair with 5 chicks at East Rd.).
We also stopped by the Empire Farm Days fields in Seneca Falls to see
the Upland Sandpipers, and were very pleased at a whole mess of
juveniles.  We saw 13 Uppies, and only 1 that I looked at closely
appeared to be an adult (!); most were fresh and cinnamon-tinged, with
bits of down wisping around the head.  It looks like they hatched out
in plenty of time to avoid the recent mowing of the hayfields.
Cheers,
Tom
