We live in southern MD and every year in early evening there's a Pewee that likes to perch on a trellis in our front yard, darting around to catch insects. I always wondered if it is the same bird returning each year since I've read of Pewees living over 8 years. During the earlier parts of the day we'll hear it singing in the woods around our house. Last night the Pewee was competing with a bat. The bat was catching insects higher up and the Pewee was catching them closer to the ground.

I currently have a Wren couple nesting in between the rafter by the ceiling and the exposed puffy insulation in our basement. They have quite a personality and have been very interested in researching their ecology. I open the basement door every morning and the male frequently flies over my head to leave for food. The female has laid at least 3 eggs (as it’s hard to peek down into it’s very deep nest. ( my daughter had broken a window in basement/garage and within the week it took To replace it i obviously came upon the female hopping around clearly trying to get outside.now that the window is replaced they rely on me to keep the door open to get in and out. They have a certain energy of charisma that shows they work as a couple and have grown trust in me. I actually shine a flashlight into the nest while standing on a stepladder each day and it took a little time for me to be certain there were 2 birds. I named them Wren & Stimpy 😂 the female fans out her feathers behind her and lies low to cover her eggs I assume . When the male is “home” he positions himself at the very /front/top entrance of the nest. I am starting to recognize the sound of their voices when they do make one of their many many sounds - thanks for your share 🎉

Wow, what a great story! That's interesting that they learned to trust people rather than assume that we are out to kill them lol. I wish more birds were like that, it would make getting videos of them easier haha. Thanks for posting and the feedback 😊

I live in rural southeastern Oklahoma and get to hear yellow billed cuckoos around my house and yard regularly. Their cooing is a beautiful kind of melancholy sound, while their other call reminds me of someone clacking rocks together, or maybe gulping. It's pretty unusual and distinctive.

I have a short video of a bird call I thought was exactly this. It isn’t. Is there anywhere I can send it to see if anyone could identify? I saw a very large orange breasted bird in my back yard but the sounds don’t match up! TY from southern WV!
@WestVirginiaWildlife9 ай бұрын
Hey, sorry for the delay in responding. There is an epic app called Merlin that can identify the species in audio recordings. Very cool and beneficial. For the large orange-breasted bird, I'd lean towards it being an American Robin based on probability lol
@WestVirginiaWildlife8 ай бұрын
Hey, sorry I misread your post and just now realized you said "very large" so I'd bet it was a red-shouldered hawk which is much larger than an american robin.

Thanks. I used the camera lock feature of davinci resolve to make it look like it was on a tripod even though I was handholding it. A really neat feature but I shoot with a prime lens and often there isn't enough space around the bird to add it. Also, I started looking up camcorders because of your video lol.

Hey! I'd say it would be better in the long-term to have a unique sort of whistle or something along with a food source like peanuts. They'll quickly associate the sound with the food source without the potential side effect of expending energy to fight off what it perceives as a new crow individual or perhaps alter their territory size.

Fun Fact: The Fish Crow is almost identical to the American Crow. The main visual difference is that the Fish Crow is smaller, but such is hard to discern without them side-by-side. The most reliable method is hearing their voice. If you would like results like this, check the links below.

Fun Fact: The Eastern Screech-Owl has three morphs; a gray, brown, and red morph (with clinal variation between them). In West Virginia, the red morph makes up slightly more than half of the population but towards the great plains, the gray morph predominates at over 90% and no red morphs occur in Mexico (as stated in the Sibley Field Guide to Birds).
