Birds seen/heard in south Oak Park on Monday, July 13, 2:23 hours (early to mid morning).

Number of identified species: 18

Sunny, calm, lower 60s rising to mid 70s.. I covered my usual route, but starting from Harvard and Wisconsin, with a side trip north to Garfield opposite the Animal Care League (but NO catbird). So it went Maple Park, Fillmore, Elmwood, Rehm Park, Lexington, and then the rest of Maple Park, plus side trips up Wisconsin-Wenonah, into Carroll Park, and to the Cooper’s Hawk nests. I did not find these species (which have been regulars during the past month): Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Gray Catbird, Common Grackle, Red-winged Blackbird. Like last time, it was pretty quiet (aside from the House Sparrows). Maple Park had 6 bird species, Carroll Park 3 species, and Rehm Park 3 species.

Rock Pigeon (Feral Pigeon)  19     All were flying over the highway, included a flock of 18 and one lone flyer.

Mourning Dove  1     Flew north along the alley just east of Oak Park Ave.

Chimney Swift  8     I often walked a three or four blocks without hearing one.

Ring-billed Gull  2     Both were flying, one to the west at Maple Park and one along Roosevelt Rd.

Cooper’s Hawk  4     At least two juveniles were calling in trees south of the Scoville nest, and two other birds seen flying from their trees (one adult and one probable adult).

Downy Woodpecker  5     Scattered along my route.

Red-eyed Vireo  1     Singing as it flew between trees along Lexington, from Clinton to just west of Home Ave.

Black-capped Chickadee  4     Two in Carroll Park and two at Lexington and Wisconsin (where one sang).

White-breasted Nuthatch  1     Calling near Harvard and Wenonah.

House Wren  6     I heard singing at six different spots: Just southeast of Harvard and Maple; just west of Fillmore and Wisconsin; northwest of Fillmore and Clinton; southeast of Fillmore and Home; just south of Rehm Park; and northeast of Lexington and Maple. (A few of these spots are new, but others have pairs nesting for the second time this season.)

European Starling  4     Two adults were on the roof of the apartment building where I conformed nesting, and two seen in flihgt south of Lexington near Oak Park Ave.

American Robin  50     Only four sang.

House Sparrow  180     Feeder houses had 9 and 12 sparrows.

House Finch  5     Four sang, and one was at a feeder house.

American Goldfinch  14     Two sang, the rest were calling flyovers.

Chipping Sparrow  5     One adult was preening in a honey locust near the Maple Park restrooms, and two adults were foraging on the ground in Rehm Park. I heard singers at Euclid Square Park (again) and in a hiney locust along Fillmore.

Brown-headed Cowbird  1     Female landed on the roof above the starling nests, then a starling landed beside her.

Northern Cardinal  24     Sixteen sang, and I heard at least one fledgling begging.

—- From older reports: Tuesday, October 27, 2009, late morning: I saw a Blue-headed Vireo in a Hackberry tree at the south edge of Carroll Park. Fortunately I had borrowed Aaron’s camera, so I got some for-the-record photos of the bird as it foraged in the tree above me:

This photo shows the Blue-headed Vireos bill (heavier than most warblers bills), white “spectacles,” gray head, and part of the double wing bars (the upper bar is kind of short).

This view, with the Blue-headed Vireo further away, shows a bit more of the gray head and white “spectacles,” plus some of the yellowish color on the flanks.

Friday, October 23, 2009, late morning: Here are some photos of Eurasian Collared-Doves seen that day. There were several pairs of Collared-Doves in this count area during July and August, when I often heard them calling and saw some carrying nesting material. Then they disappeared for almost two months until I saw them on the 23rd.

Four Eurasian Collared-Doves on wires, with two smaller, darker, and sharper-tailed Mourning Doves for comparison.

Heres a closer view of two of the Eurasian Collared-Doves.

Saturday, September 19, 2009, 2:00 p.m.: Ethan and Aaron saw a female Northern Harrier near Oak Park Ave. over the highway, as they were driving the Grandma’s with their Mom. Friday, September 11, 2009, 3:45 p.m.: While walking home from school, Aaron and his friend Matt saw a Cooper’s Hawk catch a Pigeon at the Ridgeland/I-290 bridge. Wednesday, June 3. I stopped by the Cooper’s Hawk nest and didn’t see any birds on the nest. A neighbor said he had not seen any sign of the hawks for 2 weeks. However, I did her a single “kek” call from a tree 150 feet south that probably was from a Cooper’s Hawk. Tuesday, May 26, and Thursday, May 28: I stopped by the Cooper’s Hawk nest for a few minutes on both days, but I did not see or hear any hawks — adults or babies. Thursday, April 23, 2009: Here’s a photo and close-up of the Cooper’s Hawk was on a nest (saw the head and rounded tail). Here are two photos:

Heres a closer view of the adults head. Photo by Ethan Gyllenhaal.

Wednesday, April 15, 2009:

A Eurasian Collared-Dove was in a backyard near Fillmore and Gunderson. It was both a year bird and a Bigby bird for me, so I included a photo as documentation (see below).

Eurasian Collared-Dove. Note the dark collar (partial ring) on the back of the neck.
