[cayugabirds-l] RFI: locations of nesting birds for upcoming photo book project
HI everyone, Spring is happening and a number of local birds are already nesting. I'm hoping to enlist your help in finding some nests that I can photograph for my upcoming book about nesting behavior (co-authored with Laura Erickson and slated for publication Fall 2014). Here's what I need: Black-capped Chickadee nest in nestbox (openable so I can photograph the eggs) WHite-breasted Nuthatch " " House Wren" " Northern Cardinal nest Killdeer nest Yellow Warbler (a bit early for them yet, I know...) For all the above, be assured I just need quick shots of the nest and eggs, and possibly to return later for more quick shots of the nestlings. And of course I'd be interested in any other possible photo ops you'd share... Many thanks for all leads.

I had my first yard Black-throated Green Warbler this morning, very exciting. Stewart Park is loaded with Yellow-rumped ,Yellow and Palm Warblers this morning.

[cayugabirds-l] White-throated Sparrows
While we've had a single White-throated Sparrow around for at least 2 weeks, today all of a sudden we have at least 6. I kept looking for White-crowned but no luck so far. Other yard birds include 8+ Purple Finches, an Eastern Towhee singing throughout the day it seems, a Red-breasted Nuthatch that appeared 2 days ago, finally Tree Swallows up at our nest boxes and the usual coterie of resident birds all giving us a nice morning chorus.

[cayugabirds-l] Pics of the screechie
A couple people asked, so I put a couple images on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/73284351@N03/8696531183/in/set-72157633375403153/ I misspoke about my owl house design: the hinges are above (not below) the hole, but the idea of hinging at top front rather than at bottom or hinging the roof is the basic change from some designs I found.

[cayugabirds-l] evening thrasher
I took an evening walk out back and profited from my bird song disks by hearing a brown thrasher and locating it vociferously repeating over the horse/deer field at the corner of Ellis Hollow Creek road and Turkey Hill road. It repeated numerous phrases 2 to 3 times each. I also thought maybe I heard a great crested flycatchers "Wheep" but it was the call note of a male towhee instead of it's much more familiar song it. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Prairie warblers off Hunt Hill Rd and Hunt Grove Pl.?
I COULD be mistaken as always--I don't trust my audio-identifications-- but am pretty sure it was two Prairie Warblers singing (loudly) on or near Hunt Grove, the dead end just off Hunt Hill Rd off Ellis Hollow Rd. Nice scales over and over. Doesn't seem like a prairie warbler habitat, although there is open field S of Hunt Hill there. Jon Weeks just reported one, his first, in Broome today. Anne B.
