[mou-net] Black-billed Cuckoo in Chanhassen

2021-05-18 Thread Paul Worwa
A Black-billed Cuckoo salvaged what otherwise would have been an uneventful evening of birding in the small nature area behind our Chanhassen home. It surprised me by moving from branch to branch in a very thick bush adjacent to a pond, but then sat quietly, offering great views from a distance

Seen at Schaar's Bluff this morning, where the bike trail intersects a grass path, east of the playground area. It called as I approached the trailside tree where it was perched, then flew east across a small open space, giving great looks at its long, striped tail. Linda Whyte Join or Leave

Sitting atop a fence post on the south side of SW 128th Street (gravel road). Basically open country, with brushy areas! Black bill was obvious. No "rust" in the wings. Belly and underside of tail not seen as the bird flew away from me. Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin

Late this morning, a cooperative Black-billed Cuckoo was making its way west on the river side of the path, quite close to the edge of the trail. It seemed aware and cautious, but allowed some good looks as it moved in increments ahead of us. This was East of the long boardwalk and the fallen tree

Belated thanks to Shawn Conrad, and whoever alerted him, for passing along the information that this bird had been seen at the 140th Street Marsh yesterday morning.

Our yard work was interrupted this morning when we heard a black-billed cuckoo calling from our oak trees. We were able to track him down— he was concealed but otherwise cooperative— and get excellent looks through our spotting scope. First time we’ve ever heard one here in Lake Elmo. J
