This evening I got hit with a nice one-two punch of new arrivals to our
county road in rural southwest Athens county: a singing Baltimore Oriole
and then, quite a while later, a singing Black-billed Cuckoo. I saw the
Baltimore's building a nest in a sycamore at the end of our road last year,
so hopefully they will nest here again. We've had a Cerulean singing on our
property for several days now, and the Blue-gray Gnatcatchers are still
present in very concentrated numbers. I don't know if this is normal or
not, but it's not anything I've ever noticed before.
And while I haven't seen any yet myself, I've had reports from several
friends of hummingbirds at their feeders elsewhere in the county.
Good birding!
