The gigantic raptor seen earlier in the month has not been seen since, even with the local bird experts looking out for it when they pass by the area. Whilst we were at our cabin in the Adirondacks, i saw a lone male Black-Throated Green Warbler, a lone male Scarlet Tanager, and a pair of Cedar... -

Hi, Pinewood! My local patch in Dutchess County, NY recently had a Red-Headed Woodpecker, in fact the woodpecker came to our feeders, what a surprise! Also, yesterday, my mother caught a glimpse of a rather gigantic raptor just a mile from our house. When I did a photo line-up using pics... -

Yes, the warblers are out in force, as I found out at our cabin upstate, seeing 4 species in one day in the same patch of trees. The species were Yellow-Rumped, Black-Throated Blue, Black-Throated Green, and Black-and-White warblers. I hope to visit this patch of trees more to see what else is... -

Thanks for the information Bob. It's not the first nesting Phoebes we've had. In 2006, We had been staying at our Adirondack cabin every weekend we can, and the Phoebes there had built a nest on our front porch. Although it is farther from the front door of the cabin than the one on the... -

Hi Pinewood. Another year, another chance to watch birds. Since the start of spring in Upstate NY, I have been keeping an eye on a nesting pair of Eastern Phoebes (the second nesting species on my property) who have taken to nesting in a rather bad place, that being the floodlight mounted to... -

Arthur, Congratulations on the Hairy Woodpecker. Was it a male or female? According to a book called "Enjoying Woodpeckers More" by the same people who publish Bird-Watcher's Digest, male Hairy Woodpeckers east of the Rocky Mountains have a red patch that is bisected vertically by a black stripe... -

KCFoggin, it was not an intended misspelling. I merely added coding to show what I was talking about. If you look at the original post, there's no bolding of his name. Anyway, the post was off-topic so it's not a big deal. -

Hey, Pinewood, I couldn't help but wonder if that Swainson's Warbler reported in Central Park earlier this year is still there. Have you seen it lately? -

Well, being a bird photographer (as a hobby) is all about knowing where to look. In fact, once you know where a particular bird hangs out (i.e. to feed, or nest), you're bound to find other birds near there. One time, I was wondering why a Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker was always on the same exact... -

Welcome to the forum, Pinewood from a Dutchess county resident! Here in Stormville (where the Edmund Safra bodyguard lived while off duty, before he murdered the poor billionaire...), there are tons of birds, I've logged over 50 species in my neighborhood alone! Check out my gallery, and also...
