Re:[cayugabirds-l] Baltimore oriole and barn swallows

[Johnson, Alyssa]

I saw my FOY Barn Swallows today too! At the Montezuma Audubon Center in 
Savannah. A pair was checking out a spot they nest yearly, atop 2 outdoor light 
fixtures, one outside of each door on the western side of the building. There 
was no evidence of nest building yet, when I left work around 4:30 today. I’m 
going to try and pay attention and see how long it take for them to complete 
their nest!

I also observed a pair of Carolina wrens courting and nest building it seemed, 
a lot of singing and a lot of flitting back and forth. They’re nesting in the 
top (gable?) of a gazebo. I noticed at one point one heading in to the nest 
with a beak full of caterpillars or worms. So maybe an active nest? They were 
very loud whatever they were doing. This was in Geneva this evening.

[cayugabirds-l] first Merlin of season in T'burg

[Jared Dawson]

I heard and saw in flight my FOS Merlin along Bradley St in Trumansburg, in
the general vicinity of nesting during the past two years that I have been
here. I think a male by the higher-pitched calls and apparent smaller size.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Black-throated Green Warbler

[Alicia Plotkin]

Just came home from an early morning appt to find my yard (west side of 
Ovid) awash in Yellow Rumped Warblers - had only seen 5 warblers of any 
kind before today, but there were at least 15 singing, chipping & 
gleaning at 12:45.  Still hear some singing now, 30 minutes later.  
Wasn't able to hear or see any other varieties of warbler but last night 
must have brought in some good birds.

[cayugabirds-l] Yellowlegs at Jennings Pond

[Kevin C Packard]

Hi everyone,

 This morning I found a pair of what I believe to be greater yellowlegs at 
Jennings Pond.  They are sitting on the beaver lodge in the NW corner of the 
pond (the end nearer to Bald Hill Rd). The plumage is dark but they have yellow 
(not green) legs and showed white rump patches when flushed from the pond edge 
at Bald Hill Rd.  The bills look slightly upturned, so I'm thinking these are 
greater rather than lesser yellowlegs. The birds were still there when I left 
the pond a few minutes ago. So if you are in the Danby area, feel free to check 
them out. For what it is worth, there's also a pied-billed grebe paddling 
around the same corner of the pond.

 Happy birding,

 Kevin
