Hm ok. That recording was taken at a different location near very tall pine trees right at the edge of the Adirondack Park.

Thanks. Would this one be a Dark-Eyed Junco as well? Adirondack Park 2.m4a

All of these are from Mt. Arab in the Adirondacks today. Most of them I am pretty confident on and am just looking for confirmation. 1) Blackburnian Warbler? I’m pretty sure I saw it’s orange face. 2)Pine warbler? Might be wrong on this one 3) Black-throated Blue warbler I also saw this one 4) no idea maybe yellow-rumped Adirondack Park 9 blackburnian.m4a Adirondack Park 7 pine.m4a Adirondack Park 13.m4a Adirondack Park 8.m4a

Yeah, that sounds right to me. Thanks!

So I have a few more.... The third one is a Red-eyed vireo I’m pretty sure? The first one I have no idea and the second one I definitely recognize and I know its a warbler but I’m not sure which one. There was a Black and White Warbler on a tree but I don’t think that’s it. Adirondack Park.m4a Adirondack Park 4.m4a New Recording 12.m4a

Oops! Here it is. CR-19 8.m4a

Taken today in the Adirondacks. All i can say is that it was up in a tree. Ignore the Blue Jays in the background. It does a call once in the beginning and another shorter one at the end.

Could be. I wish I had seen the bird but I just heard it as I was passing in a canoe. Is there anything that makes this definitely some sort of warbler and not a sparrow of some type?

Yes there is a Blue Jay in the beginning but that’s not the sound I’m asking for. It’s the one that sort of ascends.

Both were taken today in Hermon, NY. The first one I think is a Common Yellowthroat but the second one I don’t know. I feel like I recognize it but I can’t place it. CR-19 6.m4a CR-19 7.m4a

agreed

That's what I was hoping, my boyfriend had an Acadian Flycatcher in the same spot I saw this bird last week. I'll wait to see what others say.

All from today in Western NY. For the flycatcher I have a short call recording (The first recording) and some pictures. For the warbler it is just the second recording and it's a pretty long song. State University of New York at Fredonia 7.m4a New Recording 4.m4a

Agree with Dickcissel

Don't know if anyone cares, but this was accepted in eBird as yellow-bellied kingbird sp.

Thanks! Yeah I thought that was a Magnolia Warbler

Both taken today in Western NY. For the first one I'm looking for ID on the two birds at the end of the recording. And for the second recording the song at the beginning (which I think is some type of sparrow) is the one I'm wondering about but if you want to attempt IDing the other ones go for it. CR-380 2.m4a CR-380 3.m4a

Both taken today in Western NY. I believe the bird singing in the first one is an American Redstart and also the in the second on at about 8 seconds. Just need some verification. Thanks! Buckhorn Island State Park.m4a Buckhorn Island State Park 4.m4a

I think I will probably just have to accept that I'm not going to know an ID for this bird. I wish I had been able to get better pictures but I know these aren't sufficient enough evidence for any species so I won't report it in eBird. The only thing I would consider putting in would be yellow-bellied kingbird sp. but i don't really want to report something I am not sure on. Hopefully either I or someone else will be able to look for it again soon.

I know it's not a chat it was just the coloration that reminded me of one.

I really don't think it was. I saw some Great-crested flycatchers the same day and I've seen them on other occasions. This bird seemed too big and there was no reddish-brown on the tail or wing like in Great-crested. The eye placement doesn't seem right either.

So when I was observing this bird my very initial thought was Yellow-Breasted Chat (It obviously isn't one but I had that stuck in my head from reading it on the sign on the way into the conservation area). The reason I thought this however was because of a white line near the eye which I can see is present in Cassin's. I do think the chest is wrong for Cassin's though because (you can't see in the pictures) but it was whiter on the top.

Someone suggested Great-Crested Flycatcher to me. I did see a few Great-crested Flycatchers today but I'm sure this wasn't one. I'm still leaning towards Western Kingbird but I won't put it in eBird because these pictures are definitely not enough evidence lol.

I'm currently looking at pictures of western kingbird. There was Yellow on the underside of the bird I saw like in the pictures of Western Kingbird I am seeing. It is just not possible because of the range though.

another thing I noticed as I'm researching this... the tail doesn't seem right for Mockingbird or Kingbird.
