[IBLE] Another Osprey sighting

Today, at Esther Simplot Park, we had a flyover by an Osprey. He didn’t hang
around, just flew by heading generally toward downtown (?). He was low
enough that binos were unnecessary.

Today was also another 5 raptor day: Osprey (ESP), Merlin ( 1 at ESP/ 1 at
52d St.), RT Hawk(Les Bois race track), Cooper’s Hawk (Lander St.) and
Sharp-shinned Hawk (19th & Eastman). There was another accipiter on the GC
side of the river by ESP, but he was an immature high up in a tree and he
could have been either a small Cooper’s or a large Sharp-shinned.

Final tally was 37 birds in 14 miles, but I’m hoping the Great Horned Owl
comes to visit again.

There are 2 Black Scoters near the island below the bridge. The long-tailed Duck is upstream near north edge diving a lot.

Re: [IBLE] Black Scoter- Hagerman

There is also a Long-tailed Duck at the same location. Near the bridge but just upstream. Found by Charlotte Eberlein. The Scoter is also present.

[IBLE] late MacGillivray’s Warbler, Boise (my yard)

This morning I looked out the window for some calling chickadees (wondering if they might be scolding an owl in the juniper or ??) and was surprised to notice a MacGillvray’s Warbler working the small shrubs right next to my street.  It was finding some insects so it stayed long enough for me to get a poor digi-binocular pic 🙂
Here’s to hoping it migrates … or survives all winter and shows up on our Christmas Bird Count!

[IBLE] Bald Eagle in the river

While biking back from Remington St., after the rain had slacked off, I saw
something large in the river near 51 St. Binoculars revealed a mature Bald
Eagle standing out in the middle of the river near a gravel bar. As I
watched, he tried to take off several times, without success. I began to be
concerned that he was stuck to something in the water, until I finally
realized it was a fish too large for him to carry off. He was like a man
with one leg stuck in a bucket and he was trying to walk to the gravel bar.
It wasn’t clear if the fish was still alive, but the part he pulled out of
the water looked pretty big (I couldn’t help but think of the guy who just
the other day caught a 19 pound trout in the Boise River).

Eventually he gave up and let go of the fish. I watched to see if the fish
would float to where he could get at it again, but the fish disappeared and
the eagle took off. Very entertaining for me but disappointing for the bird.

The greenbelt was pretty much deserted, especially early on when the rain
was heaviest. But the birds were active and at Quinn’s Pond I found my first
Herring Gull in several years. I’ve seen reports of them in the area, but I
haven’t been that lucky-until today. Whereas all summer long the gulls at
Quinn’s are almost exclusively Ring-billed Gulls, lately there’s been an
influx of California Gulls. The Herring Gull was near a California Gull and
they were both on the shore, so size comparison was pretty obvious.

After I got home and dried out, Susan called me outside to see a Merlin that
had just zoomed by our feeders. He perched for a few minutes and then took
off. And later, near dark, as I was going through the gazillion emails I get
every day, I heard a Great Horned Owl. Susan heard it too, and we both ran
outside. He was in the top of a tree at 19th and Eastman, hooting to the
world. It was still light enough that I could even see his “horns” through
binos. He then took off heading east. Way cool.

That brought my day list to 37 birds (including 5 raptors) in 15 miles.
Another great day.

Re: [IBLE] Le Conte’s Sparrow @ Ted Trueblood WMA (Grand View)

Oh, and two sets of hunters with decoys kept the waterfowl away. I watched as ducks flew over and then I would hear the shots ring out. They couldn’t hit a thing. Hehe

Possible tip for finding the LeConte’s Sparrow. 
After texting with Mary Rumple last night (who saw the bird where I did), this is what I’d try if I were going back today to try to find that extremely skulky bird. Same coordinates where Jay reported it.
I got brief looks at it a few yards west of the stile (ladder over fence at bottom of hill) along the road on south side in the reeds. On the south side between the road and pond is a dike with a path. When I first arrived at 7:30am yesterday, I noticed a small bird that I had a hunch was the LeConte’s dive into the reeds between the dike and road near the stile from reeds near the dike. There were also 2 Song Sparrows hanging out there.
When I walked up on the dike a little later I saw a bird foraging on the ground (just as you get on the dike from the stile) dart into the reeds. Again I had a hunch that could be it. I waited patiently in that area near the stile occasionally walking west down the road 50 yards and then come back and hang at that spot. Hunters with dogs passed along the dike path probably flushing the bird twice before I finally got a brief visual near the road 50 minutes later. I walked up on the dike another time and the same bird was foraging on the ground but dove into the reeds. Mary told me this is where she saw the bird later. I never heard it vocalize. I waited for an hour to get better looks but to no avail.
If I were to go back I’d be real quiet and glass the path on the dike from a distance above the stile. I have a hunch that it was foraging tight along the weeds on the path within feet of getting on the dike. 
As I was leaving, I was also told there were 2 Dunlin on one of the islands (I think from the viewing area before dropping down the hill) but I didn’t have time to look for them. I also heard a Sora call when I first arrived and several Virginia Rails.
Good luck!

The bird is still present, Jay’s coordinates are pretty much right on for where Ellen and I were able to re-find it. Thought there’d be a crowd here but maybe most that would have chased it were already here with the field trip.
Good birding!Stoddard and Ellen DavenportBoise

Bryce just found on Audubon field trip along dirt road E of pond, ~1/2 way between wooden fence crossover & 2 trees on either side of road. Seen very well by many … still trying for a pic.

Possible tip for finding the LeConte’s Sparrow. 
After texting with Mary Rumple last night (who saw the bird where I did), this is what I’d try if I were going back today to try to find that extremely skulky bird. Same coordinates where Jay reported it.
