During a bird hike to Wildcat Hollow yesterday (part of the Hocking Valley Birding Trail (HVBT) activities) we saw/heard the following: Turkey Vulture Red-shouldered hawk Mourning Dove Yellow-billed Cuckoo Ruby-throated Hummingbird Red-bellied Woodpecker Hairy Woodpecker Pileated Woodpecker Eastern Wood Peewee Acadian Flycatcher Eastern Phoebe White-eyed Vireo Red-eyed Vireo Carolina Chickadee Blue-gray Gnatcatcher Wood Thrush American Robin Gray Catbird Blue-winged Warbler Northern Parula Cerulean Warbler (at one point we got in the middle of three territorial males belting it out at each other... two were singing typical songs and one was rather atypical). American Redstart Worm-eating Warbler Ovenbird Common Yellowthroat Hooded Warbler Scarlet Tanager Northern Cardinal Indigo Bunting Eastern Towhee Chipping Sparrow Wildcat Hollow is a backpacking trail on the Athens Ranger District of the Wayne. The trailhead is located in Union Township, Section 30, Morgan County . Delorme 70 D2. Also, a side note, during the HVBT Birders Reception at Hocking Hills State Park Saturday afternoon I was told that there may be a rufous hummingbird visiting the feeders at the Park Lodge (seen out the dining room windows). If someone is in the area you may want to check it out. Pat Quackenbush, the naturalist there, said one hung around last year but I don't think he has confirmed this years reported individual yet. P.S. I do want to say how great it is seeing the numerous reports coming to the list from southeastern Ohio. I just got a phone call from a lady from Maine coming to the Wayne because she saw us listed in a book (500 Important Bird Areas) regarding Cerulean Warblers. She should be out to Wildcat Hollow tomorrow. Yesterday we had one singing just off the trailhead parking lot. Drive-by birding at its best..ha.
