June 12, 2005 Don Holt and I spent a good portion of the day today birding numerous sites in southern and western Greene County, and I added a couple of hours in the eastern part of the county in the late afternoon and early evening. Quite a few noteworthy species turned up, including fairly high numbers of several: Northern Bobwhite (18, at numerous sites); Eurasian Collared-Dove (2, adjacent to West Greene High School); Yellow-billed Cuckoo (6); Red-headed Woodpecker (4, at 3 sites); Horned Lark (Hartman's Chapel Road--only the second summer record I have recorded for this species in Greene County); Yellow-throated Vireo (2); Blue Grosbeak (12); Indigo Bunting (82); Dickcissel (6, at 3 sites); Chipping Sparrow (30); Grasshopper Sparrow (14); Orchard Oriole (19, including a pair at nest); Baltimore Oriole (3, including a pair at nest on Green Road, female feeding young).
