Here in Worthington, we've had as many as 8 Pine Siskins at our feeder at once, with more waiting their turn in the trees. They seem to be sticking around here as well. Is that unusual?

Subject: Pine Siskins in Cleveland Heights



Hi all,



I know it=B9s not entirely unheard of to see Pine Siskins in our area this

late, and I=B9ve read that they occasionally nest around here, but still...



Every winter we assiduously maintain finch feeders in the back and front

yards, hoping to attract Pine Siskins or Redpolls. Over the years, we have

never seen even one around our house. This morning we had three Pine Siskin=

s

at the feeder in the front of our house in Cleveland Heights, one adult

male, with really brilliant yellow marks, and two females or immatures. We

had really good looks at them before a passing car scared them off.



This has been a tough =B3spring=B2 around here=8Bcold and wet=8Bbut this is really

odd.



Best wishes,



Steve Cagan

Cleveland Heights

Subject: Dead Swallows in Lorain county



We spent the morning walking some of the trails at Sandy Ridge Metropark in North Ridgeville, and were disturbed at the number (6 to 8) of dead swallows (both tree and barn) along the paths. Others seemed to be so (weak?) they didn't fly more than a few feet before re-landing.

Since I haven't heard of any malady afflicting birds, I am assuming this spring's continued cold, windy, and rainy weather may have delayed the normal insect spawns enough to reduce the Swallow's food supply and be the cause of this ?

Anybody heard or seen similar occurrences elsewhere ?

Subject: Bell's Vireo, Homestead Park, Hilliard, OH



Dan Sanders, Doreene LInzell, my wife Ricki, and I currently are observing a singing Bell's Vireo at the referenced location (the same as the past few years).  It is along the bike path about 0.1-0.2 miles south of the round white sign that says "P.C.C. 630 ST. L.".



Homestead Park is on Cosgray Road south of Hayden Run Road.  Park in the back lot, walk westerly past the small Bradley Station railroad  building through the bush line to the paved trail.  Go right on the trail about 0.25 miles to the aforementioned general location.

Subject: Pine siskins.



Pine siskins were present at my feeders here in northwest Hocking County

from November 26 through May 14. The highest counts were 54 birds on

March 10 and 47 on April 19. There were 16 on May 10 and 15 on       May

11, feeding throughout both days. All but one left the night of May 11.

One siskin was present on May 12 & 14 but none have been seen since then.

Perhaps those seen this week in northern Ohio were down here in The

Hocking Hills this winter and spring.

Subject: Hoover Nature Preserve, Delaware County



Today I had the pleasure to host some friends from the Delaware County

Preservation Parks at The Hoover Nature Preserve. Deer Haven Preserve in the

Preservation Parks is one of the organizations that I volunteer with. A task

that is basically lots of fun as I assist Naturalist Kim Banks with the

ParkPals Preschool programs. Members of the staff, rangers and volunteers met

me  at Area M in Galena and were greeted by a male Prothonotary Warbler that

has a  territory near the entrance to the boardwalk. This guy seems to have

 developed a habit of meeting visiting groups at the gate. This started

with the  Ohio Young Birders Club when they were at the preserve on April 23rd

and today  was the third time he has landed on the boardwalk railing in

front of visitors.



We began by walking to the end of the boardwalk to view the nesting Osprey

at Platform H-2. Dick Tuttle, who was behind erecting the platforms at the

preserve, was with us and he set up a spotting scope so everyone could get

a  great view of the Osprey. Dick has been instrumental in the placement of

nest  platforms for Osprey at Alum Creek Reservoir, Hoover Reservoir and

several  additional sites in central Ohio. Dick has had very good results for

his efforts  and we now have many Osprey nesting where there were none just a

short time ago.  On our way back from the end of the boardwalk we stopped

several times to admire  male Prothonotaries and several other warblers

flitting about in the bushes.  Also seen were American Redstarts, Yellow,

Yellow-rumped, Nashville and  Chestnut-sided Warblers.



Next we walked into Area N along the old road where additional Prothonotary

 Warblers were singing. Many were far back from the road but a few were

using  nest boxes close to the road and were observed entering and exiting nest

boxes.  Likely because the weather was overcast the warblers were much

quieter than  usual but with patience eventually came into view. Baltimore

Orioles were  chasing each other around and splashes of bright orange and black

seemed to be  everywhere.



I next took everyone over to Wiese Road as they wanted to see the new bike

trail. Preservation Parks will be maintaining the bike trail. We walked the

 trail from the east end to where it meets Plumb Road. This section may

prove to  be productive for birding in the future. Time will tell. The trail

skirts my  Prothonotary Warbler nest boxes and hopefully will provide an

easily walked  location for birders in the future. Along the edges of the trail

we observed  numerous Great Crested Flycatchers, Eastern Kingbirds, Yellow

Warblers,  White-eyed Vireos and Indigo Buntings.



After breaking for lunch many of the party left (work does call) but one of

 the staff joined me for a trek through the back areas. We observed

numerous  additional Prothonotaries along the Big Walnut Creek. I also observed

Northern  Parula, Yellow-throated, Magnolia, Chestnut-sided and Louisiana

Waterthrush  along the creek path. We returned by following the water's edge

where I have  nest boxes, stopping every so often to call in a Prothonotary. At

one location  we spotted a Red-tailed Hawk perched in a low branch. Our

route took us closer  to it and it sat and watched us for a time. When we were

less than 30 feet away  it finally decided we had seen enough and it flew and

perched on a broken tree  snag slightly further away and appeared to be

studying us. We continued on and  went into the back part of Area M where we

located additional Prothonotary  Warblers.
