We stopped by these two Delaware County migrant traps this morning and weren't disappointed. Both had good activity of thrushes, warblers, orioles, and flycatchers, as well as some un-expecteds. Gallant Woods now has 2 small wetlands that had attracted some shorebirds & egrets. Panhandle Rd in the Delaware Wildlife area also had some residual wetlands, which should enlarge with the expected rain this week. Notables for the day included: Egrets - Gallant Woods wetlands had 5 Great Egrets, while Panhandle Rd had 1 Snowy Egret Sandpipers - Gallant Woods wetland had 2 Solitaries and 1 unidentified peep, while Panhandle Rd had 2 Solitaries, 4 Least, and 2 Semipalmated Sandpipers Woodpeckers - at least 2 Red-headed were around the disc golf course at Delaware St.Park, and Diana briefly saw a sapsucker there as well. Flycatchers - Pewees, Great Cresteds, and E.Kingbirds were common at both sites. Gallant Woods also had Willow & Least Flycatchers, while Delaware St. Park had Least and Acadian Vireos - Red-eyed were common at both sites, but Gallant Woods had Yellow-throated, while Delaware St Park added Warblings Thrushes - Swainsons were abundant at both spots, and each had a few Wood Thrushes. Gallant Woods also had a Veery and Gray-cheeked Mimids - Catbirds were abundant at both spots, while Gallant Woods added a Brown Thrasher Chat - Gallant Woods had a singing Yellow-br.Chat around the small wetland loop trail Warblers - plenty at both Gallant Woods (15) and Delaware St.Park (14), but the wind picked up at Panhandle so the totals there were negligible. Included in the tally were Parula, Yellow, Nashville, Tennessees (common), Magnolias (common), Chestnut-sided (common), Blackburnian, Black-thr.Green, Black-thr.Blue, Black&White, AmerRedstarts (common), Ovenbirds, N.Waterthrush, Mourning, Canada Grosbeaks,Buntings - Indigo Buntings were common at both spots, and both had singing Rose-br.Grosbeaks Orioles - Baltimores were common at Gallant Woods and abundant at Delaware St.Park (15-20). Each site also had Orchard orioles; Delaware St.Park had an Orchard pair building a nest in a big pine right at the entrance to the marina parking area ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
