A closer look at some of the Common Cranes (Grus grus) that were pouring through Kiskunság National Park yesterday, on their way south. #BirdingHungary #cranes #bigbirds #FallMigration2025
Another flock of #cranes in flight, but these ones are harder to hear because the White-fronted Geese in front of me were making so much noise. 😀 #BirdingHungary #FallMigration2025
Sound on to hear the unmistakable, iconic flight call of the Common Crane (Grus grus). Flocks were passing over my head all day long today. #BirdingHungary #cranes #FallMigration2025
One more portrait of Meadow Pipit (Anthus pratensis). It kind of disappears into the background. #BirdingHungary #pipits #FallMigration2025
Short phonescope vid of Meadow Pipit (Anthus pratensis). Bright, pinkish legs, bold striping on the top of the head and back and a supercilium that doesn't extend back of the eye. These are some of the field marks, but I still struggle with pipit ID. 🤔 #BirdingHungary #pipits #FallMigration2025
Quick snippet of a Common Crane (Grus grus) flypast. Most seem to have already gone through. The numbers will be declining through November just as the geese numbers are building. By the end of November, the Carpathian Basin will be alive with #wildgeese 😀 #BirdingHungary #cranes #FallMigration2025
About 11-12 Canada geese fill up the slope of a beaver lodge, some sleeping or resting, and one near the top taking off with wings spread

When I got to this spot there were only three birds. Lucky for me one of them was a Nelson’s Sparrow. I was the only birder there and I got quite a show from this little bird.
LIFER.

Look at this Palm Warbler bobbing its tail. The tail movement stirs up insects which is the bird’s preferred food source.

A murder of Crows did not like us. Cackling and flying the whole time, it felt like a scene from “The Birds”. They actually cracked a branch and it fell behind our group. (Sound up to hear it). One of the birders took the branch as a souvenir.

Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers drill for sap.
The sap attract the insects.
The insects attract birds.
It’s always good to see a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.

Missed my chance to catch a Black and White Warbler on video.
Dejected, I turned around and there sat a male Black-throated Blue Warbler. Score!

A female Black-throated Blue Warbler.
Yep, not blue.
Yep, no black throat.
Could be an Orange-crowned Warbler but the white patch on the wings says otherwise.

This young Peregrine Falcon perched for over 20 minutes in this spot. I don’t know much about them but it seemed a bit odd. The trees below him were full of warblers.

Beautiful Osprey perched at Crescent. The Northern Flickers were not happy but they didn’t dive bomb this bird like they do the Red-tailed Hawks.

Big brother has flew the coop, its just Mom feeding the remaining hummingbird baby. (Part 2)
Note: Staying a respectful distance from the birds
means more photo cropping and more graininess.

Despite gloomy weather & pouring rain, the migration of Red-footed Falcons (Falco vespertinus) continues apace. Yesterday I saw 47 and today we logged over 60. Here are 27 in a single tree. Quite a few juveniles in this lot. #BirdingHungary #falcons #BirdsOfPrey #raptors #birds #FallMigration2025
We counted five Ruby-throated Hummingbirds at one time in the Vale today. They put on a lovely show, one buzzed over my head!
