[cayugabirds-l] Cuckoo
We just saw a cuckoo in our West Hill Neighborhood. We’re pretty sure it was the Black-billed Cuckoo. It’s the first one we’ve seen here in the 18+ years we’ve lived here.

[cayugabirds-l] Cuckoo Migration
Last night was my highest Black-billed Cuckoo count since starting regular recording in late May of this year. A total of 21 vocalizations were heard from at least 18 different individuals passing over my house in Etna, NY. I've uploaded a couple of images of the cuckoo chart for all of 2012 and for part of 2013, here: 2012 Migration Seasons: http://www.northeastbirding.com/Cuckoo/2012Cuckoo.jpg 2013 Migration Season (unfortunately, I am lacking a significant chunk of data for May): http://www.northeastbirding.com/Cuckoo/2013Cuckoo.jpg Good birding!

[cayugabirds-l] Cuckoo Migration
Good morning! Since I've started recording most favorable nights (late May, on), it would seem that Cuckoo migration is well under way. The biggest push seemed to be the night of 31 May to 1 June. On this night, I recorded 12 distinctly different Black-billed Cuckoos, with the first occurring at 10:46pm and the last occurring at 4:02am. Five Yellow-billed Cuckoos called over this same night, the first at 10:56pm and the last at 4:14am. Last night (1-2 June) was less favorable, with generally breezier than ideal conditions. Only three Black-billed Cuckoos were recorded calling (night flight call) overhead at 11:57pm, 2:19am, and 3:55am. Daytime reports of Cuckoos has also been up in this region over the past few days. To those who listen or record at night, good night-listening! Sincerely, Chris T-H -- Christopher T.

[cayugabirds-l] Cuckoo morning
As the sun climbs above the morning mist down in the Cayuga Inlet Valley, I can hear Black-billed Cuckoos calling from several directions, and now from the gulf comes the Yellow-billed Cuckoo's slow, deep "Kowp... Kowp... Kowp...".
