The only individual seen, but there were a couple others calling.

Habitat: Closed-canopy (more or less), secondary hardwood forest with a variety of canopy species and a number of recently-formed gaps (primarily from dead White Ash).

On a branch on a living American Beech. The only 'occurrence' noted.

Habitat: Streamside edge of closed-canopy (more or less), secondary hardwood forest with a variety of canopy species and a number of recently-formed gaps.

Crossing a stream (Plum Run) near to the drainage channel from a large Cattail Swamp. The only individual noted.

Note: The date on the camera was off by four days (i.e., the correct date was 3/13/2024).

Foraging on a dead White Ash (one of many in the area). The only individual noted.

Habitat: Red Maple (Acer rubrum) stand on ±perpetually saturated soil, with numerous White Ash (Fraxinus americana). The shrub layer is dominated by Japanese Barberry (Berberis thunbergii) and the herbaceous layer by Japanese Stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum). Based on aerial images from 1937 and 1958, this area was a meadow (or, 'meadow like') until the 1940's or '50's. Beginning in 2021, or thereabouts, the White Ash have begun to die-back due to Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis). Some of the Red Maple have also died, possibly due to the Spotted Lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula), which has been noted in abundance on the Red Maples.

The only individual that I saw, but I could hear a few others calling.

Habitat: Narrow strip of steeply sloped, north-facing land between a stream (Plum Run) and developed land. Canopy dominated by a mixture of tree species: Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus); White Ash (Fraxinus americanus), much of it now dead or dying; and, Basswood (Tilia americana). Generally, there's not much of a shrub or herbaceous layers, although pockets of ferns are present.
