Re: [cayugabirds-l] Black-billed cuckoos
Nice Anne. We have had them here since Saturday when just about all the hordes of colorful birds departed. Can the rain crows (Southern Md dialect for Yellow-billed) be far behind. It seems all the late warblers overflew us as we are down to breeding spp. John --- John and Sue Gregoire 5373 Fitzgerald Rd Burdett, NY 14818-9626 "Conserve and Create Habitat" N 42.44307 W 76.75784 On 2020-05-25 15:58, anneb.cl...@gmail.com wrote: > Heard the low repeated harsh call and to make sure played the song and calls. > Wow!

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Black-billed cuckoos
I hear them quite often up here on Sheffield Road, although more in the evenings. I'm not sure I've ever spotted one, though.

[cayugabirds-l] Black-billed Cuckoos
Following up on Geo's YB Cuckoo post, I watched a pair of Black-Billed Cuckoos in the Salmon Creek sanctuary on Salmon Creek Rd. The best encounter with Cuckoos I've probably ever had, lots of cavorting and vocalizing right overhead along the road, maybe two hundred yards past Brooks Hill Rd.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Black-billed Cuckoos
Interesting...just this morning, Livia and I had a calling (kow...kow...) then nicely seen YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOO in the Salmon Creek Sanctuary right about where John described. Last evening around 5:00, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo was giving a k'k'k'k'k,kowp song on the Wilson Trail just north of the building here at Sapsucker Woods, and then Matt Medler and I had two Yellow-billed Cuckoos foraging over the feeders along the pond edge a few minutes later. Apart from these, I have heard no other cuckoos in the daytime so far this spring. I did have an excellent night flight last week though, with 39 Black-billed and 13 Yellow-billed Cuckoos vocalizing overhead over the course of a couple of hours.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Black-billed Cuckoos
Yes, Yellow-billed is what I usually hear there at Salmon Creek. I don't think I've had Black-Billed there before. I forgot to say- I saw the Black-Billed on Sunday morning. Geo's post reminded me I hadn't reported this. --John On 6/4/2014 10:22 AM, Jay McGowan wrote: Interesting...just this morning, Livia and I had a calling (kow...kow...) then nicely seen YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOO in the Salmon Creek Sanctuary right about where John described.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Black-billed Cuckoos
In the spirit of the more you think you know, the more you have to learn would anyone please describe the call differentiation between Black and Yellow-billed? I have had both on the sanctuary and banded both species. This year as we listen we had a few obvious Black Billed doing the three note cu-cu-cu and several others that make quite a ruckus and Cu longer. Some are in-between. Re-listened to a bunch of tracks on both and am totally confused. Compounding that was listening to an obvious YBCU this morning and when it flew it out it was a Black!
