Not many new arrivals this morning around my place, but a (silent) Least Flycatcher was feeding warbler-like among the apple blossoms, and right now I have a (singing!) Swainson's Thrush down by the brook (Beech Hill area of the L-P Preserve. Canada Warbler too. Oooh! Even as I write this, a Mourning Warbler has begun singing! Hooded Warblers are present in their regular breeding territories.
A few minutes ago I surprised a Ruffed Grouse that was dust-bathing behind the sauna. Earlier I had a nice long look at a red fox. Here's a female Scarlet Tanager eating some kind of large bug, while the male is nearby, calling "chik-boings ... chik-boingg". -Geo -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
