Early afternoon today I'm very confident that I heard a trilling PINE
WARBLER on Comstock Knoll at the Cornell Botanical Garden. The bird
kept repeating the same relatively short pattern over and over. Could
not find it with naked eye. When I did playback, it would stop trilling
momentarily.
Carncross road to the parking area on Howland’s Island is now accessible and
mostly dry. I stopped at the end of the wooded section (just before the parking
area) and found quite a few birds. Indigo Buntings, Baltimore Orioles, RB
Grosbeaks, and a pair of Yellow-billed Cuckoos. Also had Yellow,
Was just out in my backyard (N Tioga St, Ithaca) filling my bird feeder when I
happened to spot a Common Nighthawk flying overhead. Loopy flight as it
“hunted” for insects. Headed north toward Stewart Park and the lake.
