BIRDING on Mountaintops the EASY Way
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лип 2024
- Mountaintops are home to unusual birds, and they're often hard to reach. But there's an easy way to get there. We'll explore three peaks in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, especially seeking Bicknell's Thrush and American Pipit.
Thanks Bob. You've given another great road trip to put on my bucket list.
Nice video on Bicknells thrushes, beautiful mountain
Thank you for another fun video.
Another terrific video, thank you!
Big Congrats on seeing Bicknell's Thrush..AWESOME CLOSEUPS! SO COOL! Great job on identifying those songs of the warblers. Awesome views from all the mountains especially Mt. Washington. Thanks for posting Bob. Love your channel 😄🥳
Beautiful ❤
Another awesome video. I saw my first Bicknell’s on Mt Mansfield 28 years ago. We have them on Killington too. That Cannon Tram is a sure bet to seeing Bicknell’s . I saw one Am Pipit along the bank of the CT River in Chester in Jan when looking for Eagles. Thanks for sharing all your findings!
Those pipits were awesome! Still loving your videos.
Yeah, I expected them to be cooperative, but not THIS cooperative. So easy.
Beautiful area. I would love to visit some day, and maybe get me a Bicknell's Thrush. I live in Colorado. I see American Pipets also, but they are usually above timberline, 11,500 feet and higher. at lower elevations,below timberline, lot's of singing Hermit Thrushes too.
Wow, Bicknell's thrushes sound really similar to veeries. It just so happens that I'll be hiking in Franconia Notch in a couple days... hopefully I'll get to hear some. Love your videos, Bob!
Best advice: Make sure you know the call notes. They do that more than the singing, which makes them a lot easier than it seems.
Excellent video - thanks, Bob!
6:32 - I love that you're able to detect the change in scenery by the bird calls before you even notice the...change in scenery.
Yeah, I was genuinely surprised. It was hermit thrushes and ovenbirds all the way down the trail...and then suddenly, BOOM. Different birds.
Hubby and I do shore birds counts in Qld, Australia and we get thousands in summer.
Good one, Bob. But then, all of your videos are good.
Man I have been hunting so hard for Bicknell's for the last month... I started just a little too late, it seems. At least I'm getting good exercise hoofing it up all these tall mountains
Great video!! Just got back from an Acadia Puffin Cruise with Trish and Steve. Really enjoy those puffin.
That's such a great trip, and Trish and Steve are awesome.
I actually got my life and FL state BITH at Sebastian Inlet SP in Indian River County on May 10, 2020. Also, my Brevard County bird (my home county) at Maritime Hammock Sanctuary on May 14, 2022. Both during spring migration. Another awesome video. I have a friend that wants to get to Maine so maybe next year. If so I'll keep you posted. It would be a treat to bird with you again.
Oddly, I've been thinking for a few years that the Space Coast Festival is enticing.
Whiteface Mountain in New York State is another great place to pick up the species you described. I just drove up there last week to get the Bicknells thrush and Boreal chickadee. The road tops out at around 4600 feet.
I've only done Whiteface once, and that was winter many years ago. But it looks like the summer chairlift goes to an absolutely perfect spot, too - about 3700 feet.
Great video! I have seen Bicknell's on Mt. Mansfield, but I'm delighted to have some new mountains to try! Thank you!
There's a spot on the Caps Ridge Trail on Mt Jefferson that is awesome for Bicknell's. I think I'll try that next year.
I bet their is a lot of ruffed grouse in those thick firs.They like that kind of habitat,because its keeps the predators away.
More spruce grouse than ruffed up there, but even they find krummholz to be a little too thick. They hang just below the stunted spruce zone. Hikers are always stumbling upon them at the upper elevations of the White Mountains.
Still, I have seen Bicknell's thrush and spruce grouse while standing in the same spot atop Big Moose Mountain in Maine.
The only place I have ever seen pipits is a mudflat on Messalonskee lake.
It's funny. When they pass through in autumn, they're pretty noisy. But they tend to be a couple hundred yards up where you'd never notice them except for the calls. They're fun that way.
Some of that habitat in NH looks good for Blackpoll. Did you find any of those?
Oh, yes. They were common. They were also jerks - thoroughly uncooperative. I couldn't persuade any of them to pose, or even come closer.
Great content, very Interesting Videos here.
