Why did I think or heard that they like going into the eye of the storm, making it easier for them. Although they'll not know where they end up 🙃
@FloridaKeysBirding2 күн бұрын
Calm winds make it easier to fly until they can get out of the storm so if they get caught in it they will go in the eye.

I have definitely learned its easiest to identify warblers and vireos by their calls because its often hard to see them. I live in southern gulf coast and have lots of hardwood forested upland habitats along creek wetlands by my house and have seen many warblers and vireo species around my property but been able to identify more by their calls then by sight. I regularly see hooded warblers, prothonatary warblers, black and white warblers, both woodthrush varieties, american redstarts, yellow breasted chats, common yellowthroat, wormeating warblers, tennesse warblers, black throated green warblers, pine warbler and a cerulean once and have been able to identify swainsons warbler, northern parula, yellow throated warblers, Kentucky warbler, and ovenbird by their call but Im sure there are more that I'm forgetting. I live in an area with biological hotspot for songbird diversity.

Sounds like you are in the perfect spot! We get lots of warblers and song birds in the keys during fall migration, but spring is hit or miss since they take the westerly route more often. I’m always jelly in spring of the gulf coast😄

@@FloridaKeysBirding yeah i kind of live by a songbird migration stopover. I live half a mile from the Pearl River bottomlands in the Mississippi/Lousisiana state line, important birding area. I have a lot of longleaf pine upland with bottomland hardwood streams. I have seen bachmans sparrow and henslows sparrow around my property and have lots of old growth pines. My neighbors have red cockaded woodpeckers and i have seen swallow tailed kites and wood stork flying around my property. I see a lot of rarities.

It's hard to attract birds like the Great Crested Flycatcher, which is a rare bird in my area with the unnecessary background music. This video has the best variety and clarity of their calls. Any chance for an edited version without music?
@FloridaKeysBirdingАй бұрын
I can do that. You can attract them in summer with a bird house. They are on of the few that will use it to nest. Otherwise you can only attract them adding things to your yard that would draw flying insects that would make flycatchers want to come to your yard.

I think I had a bunch of these birds dive bomb me and my church friends outside the church. They were flying around catching insects in the air. I'm in touch with a rehabber who needs my help with birds and I have skills to show her all about birds. I've performed many techniques on pet birds and rehabilitated a male yellow bellied sapsucker all by myself and released Twiggy after 3 days of feeding and care until he was strong enough to be released back into the wild. He hung around and would talk to me reee he'd say and poke his head around the tree and look at me. He got really fat, too from thriving in the wild. Well, he was the appropriate weight after several days of being released. I will have to hunt for the pictures and video I had taken of him in captivity. I released him Christmas day 2011 and said here's a birthday to Jesus my king and lord. He must've been happy with the gift of the bird bc when I moved out on my own, I heard one at my window but it wasn't Twiggy. But same species. I fed Twiggy crickets, baby beef Gerber food like worm patte and veggies of baby food, syrup, etc. And my mom snapped a picture of me and Twiggy and he was lapping up food from a bowl perched on the rim of the bowl. Such a hardy bird. If inever find the pictures at the old house in my old bedroom and video, I'm going to send them in to the news so everyone can see him and enjoy a close up and care of the YBSS. That's short term for his species of bird. He let me get near him in a tree and I reached out to touch him and he flew away, which I wanted to make sure he was finally a wild bird again. My dad said he was weak when my cousin had picked him up 30 minutes from where I lived at her place of work. She could have left him alone and maybe the parents would have fed him on the ground, but he looked like he had been trying to learn how to fly. We had pet birds to keep him company and I put him in a dog carrier and my dad had made a perch for him and my dad said be very quiet, he's asleep on the perch. I fed him around the clock getting up earlier to feed our birds and Twiggy too.

Great video! Probably I missed some information. My son growing these butterflies from caterpillar to butterfly. We have passion vines at home (inside). Caterpillars look happy with that. But when they come out we try to feed them with sugar water, pineapple, orange, and banana. They just became weak after 3-4 days, stopped flying and ..... This happened with just two of them for now. At this moment we have 5 chrysalises and 6 small caterpillars. How do we have to feed them and on what day release them? Thank you so much in advance.

Aloha, Mitchelle, we live on the East side of Oahu. Our cardinals have 2 fledglings. I have a video I can send you if you would like. I noticed the mom leaving them to fend for themselves at the bird feeder. We have little finches who scatter the sunflower seeds and don't seem to eat them. It's very annoying. The cardinals will eat at the feeder 2 weeks, and the finches knock the seeds all out in a couple of hours. Very annoying. Thank you for the video. Louisa

We live in Vermont, where they are among the latest birds to return in the spring (middle of May) and when we see more than one male at a time there is always an intense battle. Our pair have apparently been nesting in the same exact spot for at least three years. This year's nest had four eggs in it, and as of today two of them are not eggs anymore - they are the most fragile looking infants I have ever seen.
