For a complete list of all the April birds I found in Licking Co., please see: http://www.ohiobirds.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=234 So far in May, I have 5 warbler species: Common yellowthroat Yellow-throated warbler - gathering nesting material! At Black Hand Gorge Nashville warbler Yellow warbler Northern parula However, yesterday evening's bird du jour had to be Baltimore orioles. These must have been in transit, because they were THICK! Three in one tree, even. I believe I saw 11 all together in a 1-mile stretch at the western end of the paved Black Hand Gorge bike trail. The only "new" bird not seen in April was a red-eyed vireo. One of the adult bald eagles was perched in a huge sycamore tree along the river in the same general area where I have seen them before. A year or more ago, it would have "spooked" and flown off when it saw someone approaching on the trail. Now, it has become very comfortable with people and bicyclists on the trail.
