Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] All male Ospreys now?
This morning at Salt Point one bird was atop the platform at the point,
making frequent forays to collect sticks - fun to watch it grab at branches
while flying past a tree but fail to snap it off. After a break, it flew in
the direction of the railway bridge over Salmon Creek, and when I walked
down in that direction, one osprey (A) was sitting atop a utility pole with
a sizeable fish, while another osprey (B) was on the platform close to the
railway bridge. I _think_ B was the first bird I'd been observing on the
point platform, but am not sure. Anyhow, B flew to land on that same
utility pole alongside A, seemingly expecting A to share some of the fish,
with no sign of aggression between the two birds as far as I could tell.
But A did not want to share and unceremoniously flew off with the fish,
while B sat there for a while before flying back to the platform at the
point, making a failed grab at a tree branch along the way.

I have photos of both birds, but don't have enough experience with the
necklaces to discern male vs. female.

This morning an Osprey on the Union field light pole swooped down to the grass, appeared to grab something tiny, alight back on the pole, then swoop down again and appear to grab something invisible to me, and go back up onto the pole. The pole was swaying a bit in the wind.

On Mar 29, 2023, at 19:33, Dave Nutter <nutter.dave...> wrote:

 It’s possible that the 2 Ospreys atop the Union Fields nest were males glowering at each other or enjoying social time until the females arrive. One Osprey was on that nest this afternoon. I couldn’t check all the possible perches among other light arrays for a second bird.

Today at Allan Treman I saw a single Osprey for awhile atop the perch on the platform nearest the Hangar Theatre. I agree that’s likely a male, and I don’t know if he is just checking out sites or is trying to claim that site or actually used it last year and is very possessive. But he didn’t stay there a long time.

Then there’s the nest which has been used for many years in the field NW of the marina and closer to the lake. For awhile today there were 2 Ospreys on it side by side close together. Were they chummy, or was a second one trying to evict the first? At one point I saw fluttering which suggested copulation, but I wasn’t quick enough with the binoculars to be sure. Meanwhile a 3rd Osprey was perched in a tree nearby. And a few minutes later all 3 had flown off. It’s possible that none of these nests are actually claimed yet. But I’m letting Candace know what I - who am not an Osprey expert - observe. And I urge everyone else to do the same.

Additional observations at Allan Treman today include:
A swooping display flight high over the south end of Allan Treman State Marine Park, although the Osprey was not carrying a fish or stick as they often do in displays. My guess is it’s the same bird who was on the Hangar nest.

An Osprey eating a fish atop a tree in Jetty Woods near the north end along Cayuga Inlet while another Osprey perched atop another tree farther south but not close enough to the platform at the NW corner of Newman Golf Course to say to me that it was interested in that site.

I think that male Ospreys come north first and prepare a nest. The females come later.

 I saw the Snow Goose a little before 2pm and a little after 6pm in the same area. It has been grazing and looks alert and healthy. I agree it is unusual to have a wild goose in such a busily populated place, but the rowing crews, the drivers, and most of the pedestrians ignore it, so the bird is tolerant. Many Snow Geese who don’t finish migration are not sick but have been wounded by hunters. Sometimes they gather into small flocks who swim around Cayuga Lake. I’d rather let it be. But if it is sick, then handling it would not be a smart idea for the people.

From: Dave Nutter <nutter.dave...>
Subject: [cayugabirds-l] All male Ospreys now?
It’s possible that the 2 Ospreys atop the Union Fields nest were males glowering at each other or enjoying social time until the females arrive. One Osprey was on that nest this afternoon. I couldn’t check all the possible perches among other light arrays for a second bird.

Today at Allan Treman I saw a single Osprey for awhile atop the perch on the platform nearest the Hangar Theatre. I agree that’s likely a male, and I don’t know if he is just checking out sites or is trying to claim that site or actually used it last year and is very possessive. But he didn’t stay there a long time.

Then there’s the nest which has been used for many years in the field NW of the marina and closer to the lake. For awhile today there were 2 Ospreys on it side by side close together. Were they chummy, or was a second one trying to evict the first? At one point I saw fluttering which suggested copulation, but I wasn’t quick enough with the binoculars to be sure. Meanwhile a 3rd Osprey was perched in a tree nearby. And a few minutes later all 3 had flown off. It’s possible that none of these nests are actually claimed yet. But I’m letting Candace know what I - who am not an Osprey expert - observe. And I urge everyone else to do the same.

Additional observations at Allan Treman today include:
A swooping display flight high over the south end of Allan Treman State Marine Park, although the Osprey was not carrying a fish or stick as they often do in displays. My guess is it’s the same bird who was on the Hangar nest.

An Osprey eating a fish atop a tree in Jetty Woods near the north end along Cayuga Inlet while another Osprey perched atop another tree farther south but not close enough to the platform at the NW corner of Newman Golf Course to say to me that it was interested in that site.

I just got back from Cass Park and saw the lone snow goose about 10 minutes
ago (and 1 3/4 hours ago in a similar location) in the grass on the inlet
side not far past the Childrens' Garden. I agree that it looks healthy and
is walking in the grass nibbling, but it seems odd to see it there alone.

There was a single Osprey on the Myer’s Hill nest in Lansing this morning when I drove by. It wasn’t there yesterday for my commute, but it could have arrived later in the day and I would have missed it. But it’s there now, and I was glad to see it.

That nest on that platform over those lights over Union Fields in Cass Park had 2 Ospreys sitting on it this afternoon as I walked by on the Black Diamond Trail about 2:30pm. The birds were across from each other, not snuggling nor obviously ecstatic, but clearly they knew & accepted each other, so it looks like a mated pair has returned.

Including one back beside the nest that is atop the cellphone tower
south of Covert ~ 4:45pm today.  For the first time in three years the
nest had not been removed from the tower, so it was there to welcome the
osprey back to its summer home.  An hour earlier presumably the same
bird was perched on a phone pole 1/4 mile away, picking at a fish in its

Subject: RE: [cayugabirds-l] FOY Osprey
There was definitely one, and possibly a second osprey on the field lights platform over the baseball diamond at the base of the Black Diamond trail this morning.Also, sadly, we saw a dead bluebird near the Children's Garden; 2 others were flying and singing in the nearby trees. Saw one lone male bufflehead swimming with many Canada Geese in the inlet along Floral Park. Colleen Richards

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] FOY Osprey

This morning at 7:24am from our kitchen window I saw my first-of-year Osprey flying south over the Flood Control Channel past Inlet Island and the NYS-89 bridge, clearly hunting for fish despite the practicing rowing crews.

Despite being out at Allan Treman State Marine Park yesterday morning for nearly 3 hours, and finding 47 species, I managed to miss the Osprey which Suan observed from Stewart Park. People walking at Treman have been asking for weeks whether the Ospreys are back and when I expect them. They are our Charismatic Megafauna, although Bald Eagles are also popular. I think March 26 was my previous early record, but I have been expecting a sighting any day for the past several.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] owls and killdeer
Owls were calling last night just east of me (I'm on Sheffield Road, Ithaca/Enfield town line) - great horned owls.

Saw a pair of killdeer in my pasture this morning.

Saw two crows chasing a raven. I could hear the two different calls and the raven was much larger than the crows.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Eastern Phoebe
Interesting morning as we had a partially leucistic Song Sparrow, a Gray
Ghost and the return of a Phoebe. The latter has an avg arrival date of
April 1st per our 37 year norm here in the SW corner of the CLB.

Further away in Watkins Glen, Sandhill Cranes (nesters in Queen Catherine
Marsh the last 5 years) arrived two weeks ago and the Bald Eagle pair has
moved their nest site to the opposite bank (most likely due to increased
activity at the new sewer plant).

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Osprey @ Stewart Park
At Stewart Park this morning I heard them saw an Osprey fly by, the call both familiar and unrecognized at first as my gray matter librarian had to dust off my database of summer bird sounds that had been packed away for the winter.

A singing bluebird checked out the nestbox closest to the nw corner trailhead around the swan pen Fuertes sanctuary. Sad to see the piles remains of the mighty willow tree on the other side of the boathouse.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] sandhill cranes & more at MNWR
Numbers weren't high in the windy weather at MNWR today, but some nice sights anyway!

2 Sandhill Cranes at the pond by the visitor center this AM, along with a number of Northern Pintails, Green-winged Teals, and at least one American Black Duck x Mallard. Plus of course some watchful Canadian geese.

A small flock of Sandhill Cranes landed in the water along the shore below the drive up at the Marsellus-Knox marsh just as we got there, and stayed for a good while (a small group of dabblers also there among a few Canadian geese, but the angle of the bright spring sun had them silhouetted, preventing a good look to say what kind).

Then, in the Savannah marsh, a pair of Trumpeter swans landed, also just as we got there, for a languid bit of preening in the sun. In the water beyond, a little too far for us to be able to say for sure, a pair of American Wigeons (we think) shared some late morning peace and quiet, windy weather notwithstanding.

All in all, a lovely early spring morning in the Finger Lakes.

We had a Merlin at our house this afternoon (full credit to my kids who saw it perched in a tree and knew it wasn't a bird they were familiar with). It stayed around for about 15 minutes before heading East towards Yellow Barn Rd. Fox sparrows have returned (3 yesterday) along with song sparrows. Our resident Barred Owl has been calling more regularly over the last few days.

My understanding is that this is the main time when there will be daytime
sightings of both genders of both of our fox species. Now that the kits
have been born, nocturnal hunting alone is insufficient for feeding them.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Avian flu information
Hello all,

As many of you are aware, an avian influenza outbreak has been ongoing in domestic and wild birds across North America. Additionally, the NYS DEC has announced<https://www.dec.ny.gov/press/127337.html> a possible outbreak at the Game Farm. As bird watchers, you may be among the first to notice whether local birds may be affected, so I wanted to pass this information along to you.

The virus was first detected in New York in a shorebird from Suffolk County in February 2022. The first detection in Tompkins County was from a Canada Goose that tested positive in September 2022, followed by a handful of detections in the county since then. For latest records visit the USDA database<https://www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/ourfocus/animalhealth/animal-disease-information/avian/avian-influenza/hpai-2022/2022-hpai-wild-birds>.

Avian flu H5N1 viruses have been detected in wild birds, poultry, some mammals, and in one person in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)<https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/inhumans.htm> considers the general public health risk from avian flu to be low. However, please see the information below for precautions and best practices.

Handling: Guidance about Avian Influenza in New York State<https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/health/health-topics/avian-flu.page> from NYC.gov

* Avoid contact with birds that appear sick or have died.
* Avoid contact with surfaces that have bird feces.
* If you must touch sick or dead birds:
* Wear gloves and a face mask.
* Place dead birds in a double-bagged garbage bag.
* Throw away your gloves and facemask after use.
* Wash your hands well with soap and warm water.

Reporting

Report groups of sick or dead birds immediately. If avian influenza is suspected:

* Statewide reporting
* For poultry, call the NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets<https://agriculture.ny.gov/> at (518) 457-3502.
* For wild birds, email the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Wildlife Bureau<mailto:<wildlife...> (it is helpful to submit a photo with your description if possible) or call (718) 482-4922 or (518) 478-2203.
* For sick or injured wildlife, contact a local rehabilitator. See list of rehabilitators in New York State<https://www.dec.ny.gov/cfmx/extapps/sls_searches/index.cfm?p=live_rehab>
* Tompkins County
* Sick or injured wildlife found in Tompkins County may be reported to the Janet L. Swanson Wildlife Hospital<https://www.vet.cornell.edu/hospitals/janet-l-swanson-wildlife-hospital>: (607) 253-3060.
* Dead wildlife in Tompkins County can be reported to the Cornell Wildlife Health Lab<https://cwhl.vet.cornell.edu/> at the Animal Health Diagnostic Center. (<cwhl...><mailto:<cwhl...> or (607) 253-3134). The lab will provide further instruction.

Feeding Birds

There is no official recommendation to take down feeders unless you also keep domestic poultry, according to the National Wildlife Disease Program. We do always recommend that you clean bird feeders and birdbaths regularly<https://feederwatch.org/learn/feeding-birds/safe-feeding-environment/?<__hstc...>&<__hssc...>&__hsfp=669044239> as a way to keep many kinds of diseases at bay. For more information, see the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s web page on avian influenza<https://www.allaboutbirds.org/news/avian-influenza-outbreak-should-you-take-down-your-bird-feeders/>.

Thank you,

Miyoko

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] A few Spring birds
Yesterday I did some birding at Sapsucker Woods, including a midday raptor watch from Mount Sapsucker, where I scoped a distant Golden Eagle to the east circling up then gliding away to the northeast.

At the airport I found Eastern Meadowlarks foraging on the lawn beyond the northwest end of the runway. I first heard “Spring-0’-the-Year” songs from the Warren Road side, but ultimately saw the most - 5 total - from the Snyder Road side. There were also fine looks at the male & female American Kestrel using low posts near the runway.

From Burdick Hill Road I saw another Eastern Meadowlark foraging where hay had been mown. More surprising was that the pond was full of Ring-necked Ducks: I counted 188, while there were likely a few more hidden behind tree trunks & brush. A pair of Canada Geese were walking away, perhaps feeling overwhelmed. But walking toward the pond were 2 male Wild Turkeys, who then changed course and became hidden by a copse of trees. A minute later I looked back and saw the same thing happen. Either the same Turkeys circled around, or 2 more males followed the same path. When I got to the west end of the fields it made more sense. Near the edge of the woods and an apparent stream there was a gathering of 30 Wild Turkeys, mostly female, but at least 4 males, one of whom was displaying. Maybe this is a regular late afternoon event, that the males made sure to attend.

This morning on my walk to Allan H Treman State Marine Park I encountered several more personal year firsts: swimming north with the Fall Creek outflow on the east side of the White Lighthouse Jetty was a single male Blue-winged Teal all alone out in the open. Eventually he appeared to be resting northeast of the Red Lighthouse. Maybe he just showed up, but it’s possible that I overlooked him during any number of diligent scope scans of the shores of Stewart Park and Treman during the past couple weeks.

On the grass beside the gravel path along the lakeshore at Treman there were a dozen Song Sparrows visible at one time. Then, near the northwest corner of that gravel path, one sparrow was different: a Swamp Sparrow.

The lake seemed mostly devoid of ducks but I made an extra scan of the southwest part of the lake and was surprised to have a flying bird come into view but dip down to the surface repeatedly: my first Tree Swallow finding food resting on the water. Later I saw what may have been the same bird perched to preen on a snag near the shore. Does pausing indicate that it had enough food or that the pickings were so slim as to not be worth flying for? It soon flew off, but moments later I saw more typical careening swallow flight by at least 5 birds, all of whom were Tree Swallows.

When I got back home I found a Fox Sparrow foraging in the weeds alongside the deer fence at the edge of the yard.

None of these species are new for the year for the Cayuga Lake Basin list, but many were firsts for me, prompting those special Spring smiles.

He stayed in the same treetop for a good 30 minutes so we had lots of time

Lots of activity under the feeders this nice spring day. Our first of the year red-breasted nuthatch, fox sparrow (singing as well as foraging under the feeders) and female red-winged blackbirds. In addition, a flock of 25 grackles has descended this afternoon. The Carolina wren that has been around all winter is visiting today and a female pileated woodpecker joined the numerous downy and hairy woodpeckers to work the suet feeders. 2 song sparrows showed up yesterday and are singing away this afternoon. Oh, and yesterday we had a visit from 8 turkeys - a species that has been absent from our yard for the last 2-3 years, whereas they were reliable visitors before that.
Happy Spring!

Hey All,

The DEC just sent out this announcement:

The article does indicate that the game farm seems to have strong biosafety procedures in place, but this is not great news, especially during migration season.

Last year on March 22 I photographed killdeer for the first time in 2022. Today, I have once again on March 22 seen them for the first time in 2023! I have seen about 8 of them calling overhead and in the farm fields in the Skaneateles and Marcellus area. Between their alarm calls, the singing Song Sparrows and Robins, and one Belted Kingfisher near my house making its distinct sounds it feels very hopeful for the spring birding season.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] peregrine
I'm pretty sure I just saw, and heard, a peregrine falcon high up in a tree
in my neighborhood in South Hill, Ithaca. It was calling loudly and I saw
another one swoop down towards it. This one had the distinct falcon wing
shape. I don't know what else it could've been. They seemed to scuffle for
a brief moment before the visitor flew away. The initial bird was still
there when I walked by 10 minutes later, still calling. Most of what I
could identify from a distance was its white chest. Can it be the case that
these are peregrines?

And btw ... did you know that the word 'peregrino' in Spanish means
'pilgrim and/or migrant' as well as, oddly enough, 'strange'?

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] CBC trip changed to this Sunday 3/26
Hi All,

Looking at this weekends weather, I decided to change the bird trip to
*SUNDAY MARCH 26th.  (Was scheduled on SAT.)*

*SUNDAY - March 26th - Half day trip, 8 AM to 12:30.  Meet Gladys at 8
AM at Stewart Park, at the east side parking area.  We will check for
waterfowl, and other new migrants arriving this first week of Spring.  
We will work our way up the east side of the lake to Myers Park and Salt
Point, and check some rural roads and fields. Dress for the weather and
bring a snack and beverage.  Call Gladys with questions at 607-280-9540.*

Thanks!

Gladys Birdsall

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Owl Prowl Dusk Walk @ Finger Lakes Museum 4/1
Owl Prowl Dusk Walk @ Finger Lakes Museum

Saturday, April 1, 6-8 pmTo register: https://www.fingerlakesmuseum.org/program/owl-prowl-dusk-walk

Take a dusk walk with us to look and listen for some of the Finger Lakes year-round residents: owls! Believe it or not, breeding is well underway for Great Horned Owls, and others like the Barred and Eastern Screech Owls are just gearing up. Join us for this guided experience to learn more about owl natural history, tips, and tricks for detecting them, and which species of owls live nearby. We will also discuss and seek out other birds and wildlife that could be present this time of year including American Woodcock, Red-winged Blackbirds, wood frogs, and spring peepers!The Owl Prowl is a family-friendly event and will be guided by Alyssa Johnson, The Bare Handed Naturalist, and Debbie Lyon of the Finger Lakes Museum. The walk will be approximately 1 mile in distance, along a relatively flat, unpaved trail that will lead us through the woods and around the wetlands. You will want to wear hiking/mud boots as sections of the trail could be wet. Please dress for the weather, and bring a headlamp or flashlight for the return walk. There is no guarantee that we will actually encounter owls, but we guarantee a wonder-filled early spring adventure!Register with the tickets link to save a spot for you and/or your family!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Aside from tick-borne babesiosis...
Also be on the lookout for the pathogen Borrelia miyamotoi which is carried
by black-legged ticks, as well. It causes relapsing fever, and can progress
to meningoencephalitis. If doctors are only screening for Lyme in sick
patients, they may miss this.

I know of one person (and possibly two) who got infected by B. miyamotoi in
Danby in just the last year.

Apologies to admin if this has gotten off-topic. I thought it was
especially germane to mention since Lindsay Parsons Biodiversity Preserve
is such a hotspot for migratory birds in Danby, and also has one of the
highest black-legged tick densities in the area.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Great Blue Heron Rookery
The long standing GBH rookery that is roughly half way between Freeville and Mclean (northwest side of Fall Creek Road, in a large marshy area adjacent to Fall Creek) started to repopulate yesterday and had almost every nest occupied today. Roughly a dozen birds. The birds that nest here are incredibly consistent with their timing. Although I lost a couple of years due to the pandemic, the last year I actively checked this site daily was 2019 when the birds arrived on March 19th and 20th.

Cheers-
Andrew Miller
Freeville, NY

Subject: Re:[cayugabirds-l] cayugabirds-l digest: March 21, 2023
A good family doctor or internist is likely to be aware of it and test for
it when appropriate. It is pretty well known in the medical community and
there is lots of information out there about it, and while cases have
increased, it is still quite rare for an individual clinician to have seen
many cases. So don't be too alarmed!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] nest building
Yesterday, saw a crow carrying a stick into the top of the spruce tree near my house. There's a group of 5 crows hanging close to each other. I've had a breeding family here for some years now.

I'm hearing lots of Carolina wrens and I think I see them but flitting too fast to tell. Merlin hears song sparrows, again flitting too fast for me to see. Lots of red-winged blackbirds, robins, and bluebirds. And a couple of blue jays that may have been around all winter.

Sheffield Road, Ithaca/Enfield town line.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] woodcock on Mt. Kendal
Last night (Monday) not long after sunset 3 of us inmates heard and saw the Woodcock doing its display flight and peenting!
I think we saw it both ascending and descending.

It seems to have quit right after 8 PM both nights I was listening/observing.
It was in the same spot on Mt. Kendal as it was Friday and Saturday.

Yesterday here, I saw a single Mockingbird again. I hope the mate shows up (pair here last fall)!
I have seen a Song Sparrow and heard a Carolina Wren, along with Cardinals and other usual bird residents.
Lots more bird singing in the morning - the start of the Dawn Chorus!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] FOS
I’ve just had my FOS male Purple Finch arrive. I’ve had about 4 Song Sparrows for a week. Luckily the number of blackbirds has diminished. Just a few bossy grackles at a time. I had a Carolina Wren a few times this winter and a Mockingbird but haven’t seen either in quite a while.
I have a starling pulling out the nesting materials in a House Sparrow nest chalet. Oh, I finally have heard a bluebird. They often nest here. That’s my spring report.

Sorry to say this information is out of date. The FREE tick testing is

One can still get the tick tested, but they will have to pay the current

We have Insectishield clothes and religiously use insect repellent, and do
tick checks. Any tick found can/should be sent to the Upstate Medical lab
for free testing for tick borne disease.

You don't need the article. Just look up babesia / babesiosis. I had it two
summers ago along with Lyme when it was still rare here. It's a single
celled organism that attacks red blood cells and platelets, like malaria,
and is treated the same way as malaria, not Lyme or anaplasmosis (look that
up too). When I had it, no one I went to had heard of it until I got to Dr.
Macqueen, who had dealt with it in Maine. Now I'm sure the medical
community knows about it. Most people fight it off eventually, but it can
possibly kill and can definitely linger in your system. I want to praise
Dr. Macqueen and the Cayuga Center for Infectious diseases.

Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] Tick disease other than Lyme.
Several tick born diseases are present in the Northeast and more are coming
with changing climate and new species of tick making their way north.

The Goodman Pathogen lab at Cornell is working on a surveillance project to
collect ticks from wildlife and catalogue what they are carrying.

Also, the Thangamani Lab at Upstate in Syracuse will test any ticks the
public sends in for a panel of diseases. All it costs is shipping. Great
resource!

Is there any other way this could be sent out to us? Some of us don’t have
a New York Times subscription so I can’t read it.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Woodcock at Mr. Kendal
Tonight after dinner in the main building here at Kendal (7:05), I walked to the small hill to the south of "campus" that we call Mt. Kendal to see if I could find the Woodcock that was reported by Nelly Farnum last night.

Finally, after it was almost dark (~7:40), I heard a relatively faint peenting from the southeast side of the hill near the bushes by the houses on Spruce Lane, Cayuga Hts. this is more towards Triphammer Road.
I walked that direction to get closer and was across an overgrown grassy area from where the bird was peenting.

Then peenting stopped &I saw nothing due to bad eyes and darkness, but soon I heard the twittery sounds the Woodcock makes as it descends from high in the sky!
I heard this several times before it seemed to be done about 7:55.
I was very cold by then, so I left to go home to 377.

Nelly Farnum and I will go there tomorrow at 7:30 to see it we can find the bird again!

Nelly 3 years ago convinced the grounds crew here to stop mowing "Mt. Kendal" except for a few grassy trails; it has grown into a nice grassy place with goldenrod, asters, tall grass, teasels, etc.
And now it has a Woodcock! Just down the road from all the malls.
Build it and they will come!

The Northern Shrike was on Creamery Road about 100 yards south of the ridge crest around 3:45 PM, sitting on one fence pole and another between stoops to the grass.

Found it very easily. Beautiful specimen. Performed beautifully, too, coming as close as 50 yards, and turning this way and that to give an all-around view. Never got a better look at one.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Northern Shrike in Caroline
For a couple of days there's been a Northern Shrike on Creamery Road in Caroline. It's been foraging in fields on the right side of the road, coming from 79. This morning it was perching up on an isolated bush in the middle of the upper field, the one with an electric fence around it. The shrike was active and often out of sight, but it returned to that bush frequently, perching on top of the bush in various locations. It also perched on top of small fence posts near the bush a couple of times.

Also foraging over the fields was a Northern Harrier, and at least one Eastern Meadowlark was active and singing in the field. A resident Common Raven could occasionally be heard calling as well.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] airport/Kendal
At about noon I was driving along Snyder Road north of the Ithaca International Airport 😊 looking for possible N. Harriers.

I saw instead the usual Red-tailed Hawk, who, annoyed at me driving slowly by it perched on the N-S eastern fence,
took off and acted like a Harrier, flying very low over the ground to a more distant place to perch on another fence.

Besides the Red-tail, I saw some A. Crows and I think I heard an Eastern Meadowlark; it sang only part of its usual song.
I did not see it.

Meanwhile, here at the old folks home, Nelly Farnum is sure she heard a Woodcock peenting over on Mount Kendal !
We are going out tomorrow at dusk to try to hear/see it. I may go tonight after dinner.

I had a pretty Song Sparrow in my “back yard” for a while yesterday.
Finally, our Kendal Screech Owl has not been seen in its perfect tree hole for over a week ☹.

I just watched a pair of Northern mockingbirds go through their mating dance/ritual including the aerial part and then end up on the ground where they mated.

Quite a few bluebirds right around my house in the last week and finally robins near my house, too. I've seen plenty of both in the last few weeks but near my house.

perched on top of small fence posts near the bush a couple of times.

Also foraging over the fields was a Northern Harrier, and at least one
Eastern Meadowlark was active and singing in the field. A resident Common
Raven could occasionally be heard calling as well.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Laden Raven
One of my local Ravens just flew by at window height carrying a rigid object, which (at a guess) looked about eight inches long. I figured the pair had eggs by now, so perhaps it was a food delivery for the incubating female - something with a bone still in it?

Hey folks.
I have a "mystery" woodpecker coming to the suet. It's too big to be a downy, but not quite big enough to be a hairy. And even its beak is an in-betweener!
If I had to guess I suppose I'd call it a hairy, but.....
Any thoughts? Maybe just size variation within a species? Sex-size differences?
Thank you.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Taughannock Peregrines
There was deep slush everywhere at my house yesterday, and it was hard work for my elderly dog to struggle through, so I took her for a long leisurely walk at Taughannock Point.

There was a Snow Goose at the north point that had an injured wing. It paddled north toward Frontenac, forestalling a capture attempt by park staff.

Before heading home I stopped at the dirt turnout along Gorge Road around 5:15 pm to look across the gorge at the cliff just below the overlook Visitors Center. As I watched, an adult Peregrine flew to a snag that hangs downward from the cliff-top. A minute later, the second adult flew in and settled on a ledge just behind the snag.

this coming spring! This is a great way to learn more about birds and
their lives! Dr. Kress's presentations, enhanced with audio

Chemung Valley Audubon Society Meeting and Program

March 16, 2023 at 7:00 p.m.



In-person: meet at Appleridge, 168 Miller St., Horseheads, NY.

By Zoom: email <windingwayhorse...> to request a Zoom invitation.



"The Motus Network for Migratory Bird Studies"

Presented by Diane Morton of Cayuga Bird Club



​Chemung Valley Audubon Society meets March 16 at 7:00 p.m. in the West End Room at Appleridge, 168 Miller St., Horseheads, NY. All are welcome to attend to learn about local birds, the society's projects, and how to become involved. Appleridge is wheelchair accessible.

​A 7:00 p.m. Bird Identification Workshop by Bill Ostrander is followed by a brief business meeting at 7:30. Diane Morton, visiting from Cayuga Bird Club, will offer a program on Motus Wildlife Tracking.

​Developed by Bird Studies Canada, Motus allows researchers to follow the movements of birds and other wildlife that are fitted with tiny radio transmitters called nanotags. When a tagged bird flies within a few miles of a Motus receiver, its detection is logged and transmitted to motus.org to be shared throughout the international Motus network.

​During the past three years, Cayuga Bird Club has established two Motus receiving stations that contribute to the array for the southern Central New York region. Diane will explain the technology, its benefits, and the process of becoming part of the Motus community.

​Diane is past president and current director of Cayuga Bird Club. She is retired from Cornell University's Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, where she was a senior research associate. She enjoys leading birding field trips and traveling to see birds.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] New budget proposal vote tonight via Zoom
Good snowy afternoon to you! Here is some important information about tonight’s CBC meeting via Zoom.

In case you haven’t heard yet, we will be doing a ZOOM meeting for tonight instead of an in-person meeting. This is due to the weather and anticipated poor travel conditions tonight. To get to the Zoom link, Please see the Club Calendar <https://sites.google.com/site/cbc14850/calendar> for the Zoom link.

Recently Diane M. and Jody E. have have brought a budget proposal to me for the purchase of an additional Purple Martin house to be erected in a different location at Stewart Park. It has been APPROVED by the Exec. Committee and the Directors. We need the membership to vote on this tonight, so I will ask that all members who will be “attending” tonight's meeting be familiar with it ahead if time. It can be found on the CBC website under the “newsletter” link on the left hand side. Open the latest (March 2023) newsletter. Scroll down, as the proposal is near the bottom. We will let all of tonight's attendees know the procedure for asking questions and how to vote via Zoom during the meeting's broadcast. A reminder: only CBC members are allowed to vote.

Thanks for your time.

Cayuga Bird Club VP

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Davis Road and Nut Ridge Road
I ventured up the lake after 1 pm to try and find the Snow Buntings and
Horned Larks Bob reported yesterday.  I first saw the manure on the
field from Jerry Smith Road, but the birds were very distant, closer to
Davis Road.  I drove down Jerry Smith and turned south onto Davis.  They
were very close to Davis Road. They would swirl up and go back and forth
on the field sometimes landing in the corn stubble or in the grass strip
closer to Davis Road.  A couple friends drove up and were looking for
them too. We stayed for probably a half hour and the Snow Buntings and
Horned Larks were then crossing the road to the field behind us. They
were landing on the road in front and behind our vehicles. Sometimes
quite close.  There were definitely hundreds of Snow Buntings.  Horned
Larks were mixed in and constantly moving.  We found we had to be really
still as the birds that were close to us in the road would take off if
we moved!   A very enjoyable time seeing them so close and the large
flocks swirling back and forth.  I haven't seen that in years.

I went on a bit further to look at the ag fields on Nut Ridge Road (Bell
Station).  As I turned onto Nut Ridge I saw a very distant flock flying,
20-30 that appeared to be Horned Larks. Quickly I saw some Snow Geese
and so stopped.   They were grazing on one of the grassy strips and
covered it pretty much from one end to the south end of the field.  They
were not far off Nut Ridge, and I had really nice views just with my
binocs.  I never got out of the car because I thought they would take
off.  There were dark adults and one I saw I believe was a white
juvenile.  I stayed put for a bit watching them, and then drove slowly
further down towards the lake and turned around in one of the drives
that enter the field.  I pulled over to continue watching them and look
for other field birds.  Several times I saw flocks of mostly Horned
Larks flying around the field.  A few single birds landed on the
shoulder of Nut Ridge Road.  Once as a group came closer, I was able to
see several Snow Buntings mixed in.  Later a group of maybe 100 flew up
and they crossed Nut Ridge and kept flying north.   As I drove back up
Nut Ridge, a car coming towards me stopped.  It was Mrs. Stevens who
lives down there.  She was thrilled to see and hear the Snow Geese.  As
we talked the geese suddenly got loud and flew up and then came back
down in the field, but at the south end.  I estimate there was over a
1,000 Snow Geese.  A small group of Snow Geese (20-25) had wandered up
towards Lake Ridge road, very close to Nut Ridge, walking along and
grazing!

I saw 9 Dark-eyed Juncos and four Cardinals together along the shoulder
of Nut Ridge.  I saw 4 Tree Sparrows on the shoulder of Lake Ridge
Road.  A Turkey Vulture was sitting in the road right near Nut Ridge
feeding on a carcass.  I thought I would chuck it (the road kill) out of
the road so the TV wouldn't get hit.  As I approached I saw it was a
skunk.  Never mind.  The TV flew off and did not return.  As I later
drove 34B, I saw about 15 Snow Buntings fly into a field from the
telephone wires.  Horned Larks flew up from the secondary roads as I
drove around.   A nice afternoon.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese etc
Around noon today we saw from Union Springs a large continuum of skeins across the lake land towards the opposite shore - we think - which according to google maps would be offshore from Canoga where there is no public access. When we drove back south around 2:30, we saw a few "small" islands of snow geese not too far offshore, between Dean's Cove and Thirsty Owl; we were in a hurry then so did not stop to investigate further.

Other highlights of our trip including the most cooperative snow bunting ever on Davis road, perched on a bush right by the road where we pulled over and staying out for fantastic naked eye looks by everyone before we got out of the van. We saw a few more small flocks of snow buntings and horned larks throughout the day, including on the west side of the lake coming down. A pair of merlins were at Frontenac park in Union springs as well. Good variety of waterfowl at factory street pond as well as at the MNWR visitor center where four sandhill were a big hit, especially when they started dancing.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] n. end Cayuga Lake and Montezuma Complex
Hi all,

Yeah, I was leading the 2nd leg of my 8-part class called Nourishing
Ourselves Through Nature (I'm doing it as a collab with Baltimore Woods),
and I can echo what Bob McGuire said, it was a very birdy picturesque day
to be out despite only seeing 1 Snow Goose. The day was about a sense of
"awe" that nature brings..... we ended up having 22 species of
waterfowl including the merganser and swan sweeps. We also had several
Sandhill Cranes, a Merlin at Mud Lock, and several Bald Eagles and Northern
Harriers around too.

best,
Matt

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Today's Trip up the Lake
I started out with one - later joined by two more - folks for the bird club trip today. Remember the adage “bad weather, good birding”? Well, today’s trip was one of the best I’ve ever been on (around here, anyway).

The lake was cold and windy, of course. Nevertheless, we had 10 American Pipits and five Killdeer at Myers park. Then a HUGE flock of some 1,000 Horned Larks and hundreds of Snow Buntings on the (distant) manure spread along Davis Road. I’m sure there was a Longspur in there somewhere, but with the distance and the fact that the flock was in constant motion, was unable to pick one out. Horned Grebes from the Aurora boathouse. A large aythya flock off Mackenzie-Childs. Wood Ducks at Factory Street Pond. And then a first-of-year (for me) Tree Swallow hawking insects over the open water at Knox-Marsellus marsh (with a Merlin perched on a phone pole next to the car). We missed the Eurasian Wigeon in the Morgan Road marshes but still had lots of ducks - and a few (first-of-year for me) Northern Shovelers.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club scholarships for youth and educators
The Cayuga Bird Club is making several scholarships available for young
people and educators for our 2023 course, *Spring Ornithology with Steve
Kress*. This eight-week course will be held on Wednesday evenings, March 29
- May 17, 2021, 7 - 9 pm, at Kendal at Ithaca or via Zoom.
We hope to make this course available to a broader audience of people who
may be interested in birds but unable to afford the course fee. Instead of
the full $125 course fee, scholarship recipients will be asked to pay $15,
which will include Cayuga Bird Club membership.




*Applications for youth and young adult scholarships are welcome from young
people ages 14-22.Applications for educator scholarships are welcome from
teachers, naturalists, and other youth mentors.*

Lectures by Dr. Stephen Kress will include discussion of habitat,
migration, courtship, bird family life, and conservation. Each weekly
presentation features a group of birds that are at the peak of their spring
migration, with beautiful photos and sound recordings. Lectures will also
be recorded and shared with participants for later viewing if they are
unable to attend a session, or if they’d just like to watch again to
review. Dr. Kress is renowned for his entertaining and engaging teaching
style, and loves sharing his extensive knowledge of bird life.

Course information and scholarship application forms are available for
download at www.cayugabirdclub.org/spring-ornithology. You may also request
scholarship application materials by emailing <dianegmorton...> The
application deadline is March 17, 2023.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] FOY fish crow
I heard my FOY Fish Crow in Geneva this morning. I‘ve heard and seen them throughout the city and along the lake front in years past, but I was walking along Washington St when I heard (then saw) it this morning. If anyone has tips on visual ID, please share! As far as I know, there is a slight size difference between them and Americans. I always rely on what they sound like though, because I can’t tell them visually apart from American Crows.

The funny trick I learned in the orno course I took in college is to ask the crow “are you an American Crow?” And if they say “UH-UH”, they are a Fish Crow :)

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Update on the Children's Forest of Coto Brus visited by the Cayuga Bird Club
Hi All,

In February 2020, right before the covid pandemic shut everything down,
several of us from the Cayuga Bird Club traveled to southern Costa Rica and
visited Finca Cantaros, where the Children's Forest was started in 2019.
See our newsletter article about the visit here:
https://mailchi.mp/d51d96bd457f/cayuga-bird-club-newsletter-2020-03

Then, take a look at this brief video update from Lily Briggs, who is the
owner/operator of Finca Cantaros (and past postdoc at the Lab or
Ornithology): https://vimeo.com/801723758 Look at how much change has
occurred in a few short years.

Of course things grow faster in a tropical climate, but Lily's message of
collaboration to achieve a vision is something that the Cayuga Bird Club
also embodies.

Enjoy!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club March meeting and speaker dinner
The March meeting of the Cayuga Bird Club will be Monday, March 13, 2023, at 7:30 pm at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Our speaker, Alli Smith, will be presenting "Behind the Scenes of Merlin Sound ID". The Merlin Bird ID app, created by the Cornell lab of Ornithology, is a global field guide and a powerful tool to help identify the birds around you. Sound ID, the newest feature added to Merlin in Spring 2021, helps you identify 1,000+ bird species by sound even when you can&rsquo;t see them - but how does it work? We&rsquo;ll take a deep dive behind the scenes of Merlin to learn how Sound ID was developed, and how you can help us expand Merlin to cover more species worldwide. About the Speaker: Alli Smith is the Merlin Project Coordinator at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, where her work focuses on outreach and supporting birders. She graduated from SUNY-ESF with a BS in Wildlife Science in 2016 and has been bouncing around the bird conservation world since then, including working with seabirds and managing citizen science monitoring projects. Alli believes in the power of community to make a positive impact on bird conservation, and is thrilled to be able to support birders worldwide with the Merlin Bird ID app. There will be a speaker dinner before the meeting at 5:30 at Sumo Restaurant (Cayuga Mall on Triphammer Rd.). Please rsvp to Colleen Richards, <clr82...>, by noon Mon., March 13.
In-person meetings at the Lab of Ornithology start with cookies at 7 pm, the reading of the bird list* at 7:25 pm, and club business at 7:30 pm, followed by the speaker's presentation starting around 7:45 and ending by 9 pm. Colleen Richards
Cayuga Bird Club
Corresponding Secretary
* NOTE: For March, 2023, one of our standing agenda items -- the Reading of the List -- will take place at 7:25, prior to the regular business meeting, to safeguard the speakers' time while retaining a long standing tradition during the more "social" and interactive time ahead of the business meeting. Cayuga Bird Club meetings are held on the second Monday of each month, September through June, and are free and open to the public.

We will attempt to make presentations available virtually as a recording posted a few days later.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Loyuisiana Waterthrush in Finger Lakes Land Trust Preserves

The Finger Lakes regionis named for the beautiful lakes formed in north-south valleys carved by glaciers.Subsequently, dozens of east-west streams have formed gorges as water flowedover steep declines and into these lakes. These head water streams are often surroundedby mature forests and can provide clear water to the finger lakes. Thesestreams are a prized feature of the preserves of the Finger Lakes Land Trustand they provide the very specialized habitat required by the LouisianaWaterthrush.

The LouisianaWaterthrush nests exclusively along streams in mature forests. They feed onlarge, aquatic insect larvae that live in unpolluted streams with a fast flow. Thesespecialized requirements make this bird one of the rarest songbirds routinely nestingin the Finger Lakes region. The Finger Lakes Land Trust has established manypreserves that protect this ideal habitat. A survey of Louisiana Waterthrushbreeding in land trust preserves is likely to show a large number of these uncommonwarblers.

I would like to organizea survey of Louisiana Waterthrush nesting in the preserves of the Finger LakesLand Trust. If you are interested in helping this census, please contact JohnConfer <confergoldwing...>

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Union Springs, NY ... Thousands of snow geese
About 2:30 p.m. my daughter, Becky, heard a gunshot & almost immediately the frantic canon-like sound of thousands of snows immediately becoming airborne. They were in the fields around Spruce Haven farm  on White Rd. east of Union Springs just east of Ridge Rd..She called me & I was able from my house in Union Springs, to see the beginning flights of thousands of geese. The closer they came, the higher they flew towards the WNW   The first flights were going over the west side of Cayuga Lake before the end flights came from the east. They definitely made no move to land on Cayuga Lake & perhaps were heading towards Seneca Lake.
So, YES, snows are still in the area but gunshots, whether by farmers or hunters or natural decisions seems to be keeping them on the move.

I've used bird tape on my windows for a few years. I now have zero bird
strikes. Before that, I had decals of hawks which didn't help at all.
Bird tape REALLY works well.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Preventing bird-window strikes
Hi all,

With bird migration ramping up, many folks may be interested in making
their own homes safer for birds. One of the things you can do to reduce
bird mortality near your home is to help birds understand that your windows
are a hard surface and not just more habitat to fly through.

The American Bird Conservancy has a big section of their website devoted to
reducing window strikes. Here is a link to some useful and inexpensive
solutions. https://abcbirds.org/news/abc-birdtape-feather-friendly/

Enjoy and happy birding!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] My FOY Rusty Blackbird
While out driving along Fitzgerald Road in Schuyler County this morning, I came up on a mixed species foraging flock along side the road. Closer inspection with binoculars showed many Robins, several Cardinals, a few Starlings and Juncos and, what I thought at first was a Red-winged Blackbird. While the body structure and bill were the same as a RWBL, the body plumage was all jet black and it had a yellow iris. I took a few pictures of this Rusty, which I will upload to accompany my eBird list.

Then, after driving a bit further down Fitzgerald, I came upon a few Horned Larks and one lone Snow Bunting. Pictures will be coming soon to join that eBird list.

Finally! Some roadside birds this winter!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Canal walks for school/youth grouos
Hi folks.
An FYI for any teachers/youth club/scout club leaders on the listserve.
The Canal Corporation is offering free walks for youth/school-related
groups along the Seneca River (Cayuga-Seneca canal) near Waterloo, NY. The
walks can be as long as 2 hours, and we unpack both the cultural and
natural history of that particular neck of the woods. The River has some
facinating stories to tell!
If you are a teacher/youth group leader and this interests you, email me
off-list.
In the meantime, I hope you're able to enjoy the events (both subtle and
not-so-subtle) currently unfolding in the natural world, courtesy the
increased "nourishment" provided by our star, the Sun.

Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?
Yesterday evening I had a count of +7,000 SNGO just west of the refuge at
sunset. Many settled into a corn stubble field near me only to erupt into
a cacophony of sound and panicked flight following a volley of gunshots.

Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?
I was just at Aurora where I could barely make out a "small" (~1-2k?) island of snow geese in the distance, slightly south of due west. I suspect this is one of the islands Geo saw from the other side, and I believe it is located in the middle of the lake at the widest point of the lake, pretty much as far away from shore than they can get. This has been a popular spot to raft in past years, distantly visible from Dean's Cove against the backdrop of Aurora's pretty buildings, where they look to be closer to the east shore when in fact they probably aren't.

Did not encounter any bigger flocks, just a few small high flyover groups. Visitor Center pool was thinly frozen over and hosting Canada geese, pintails, and green-winged teals, with three Sandhill Cranes joined by three others for a bit before three departed. It was fun watching them all negotiate the ice, with some nice long slidey landings by pintails. We'll see if any of my videos turn out watchable.

Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?
Hi everyone,

I’ve been out in the Complex the last 2 afternoons. Most of the marshes, including the muck flats along 31 are frozen still. I found a large flock (approximately 100,000) on Gravel Road behind the Tyre Municipality Building yesterday about 5 pm. Carncross Road was good for swans (several hundred likely mostly Tundra based on what I was hearing), and thousands of ducks including Northern Pintail, Mallard, American Black Ducks, American Wigeon… maybe more. On the south side of the road, a lot of that closest field was open. I could see beyond there must have been holes in the ice here and there where the birds were concentrating, but most of it is not easy to view because of distance and vegetation. I didn’t get to Morgan Rd, but I’m guessing the units between the parking lot and river are mostly frozen still. That’s been a good spot in years past for eagles on the ice and divers. I also didn’t make it to VanDyne Spoor Rd, but guessing similar conditions.

To anyone who isn’t familiar with Carncross and VanDyne Spoor Roads, they are seasonally maintained. So the last 2 days they were a little slushy and muddy but I made it fine. After tonight/tomorrow, I wouldn’t risk it personally. When I worked at Montezuma, occasionally I’d answer a call of “help! come save me” and all I could do was suggest Reed’s Towing.

I am about to drive the entire west side of Cayuga to see if I can find the snow goose ice burg I expect is floating out there. If the marshes stay frozen, the geese will likely continue to stage in “smaller” groups in ag fields and on the lake then move on. But if the marshes melt, especially along Route 31, I bet they will dump in there and stage in numbers north of 500k. Last year it was estimated at the muck flats, at one time, 600-800,000 snow geese, 3000 tundras, and tens of thousands of ducks!

Final thought- if anyone is interested in a guided tour, I just started working through Airbnb as an “Experience Host”! I don’t want to overstep and self promote too much here, but if you email me privately, I’d be happy to share more information about how that works and my availability.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Peregrine Falcon
I was thrilled to find one of the Peregrines looking up at me from about 40 feet away - perched on a snag on the north rim of Taughannock gorge just below the visitor’s center (8:30 am). It sat preening and looking around, aware of my presence but not seeming to be distracted by it. It called occasionally, quite loud above the falling water of the falls. After about a half hour several Turkey Vultures flew up the gorge and shortly after that the Peregrine departed downstream.

While not a rarity by any means (though a first for this hotspot in eBird), there are 4 tundra swans resting on the ice and paddling about Jennings Pond this morning. They are easy to see and photograph. So feel free if you are in Danby and would like to have nice views of swans. 🙂

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Union Springs TVs
We have had a few turkey vultures all winter but this a.m. "our" locals have returned. I counted at least 18 about 10 a.m. as they rose up from their "home" & shelter in the nearby evergreens.

Yesterday I glanced out the kitchen  window just as a magnificent male pheasant came around the corner on my back sidewalk! So sad to see him all by himself with no food, friends or shelter. Hopefully he found buds on bushes or drops under a bird feeder.
Bluebirds have been in the area all winter but now are coming almost daily to check out their box on the clothesline arm. A female house finch was with them on Wed.. Yrs. ago female house finches seemed to act like friends/caretakers of the bluebirds during brooding time & after babies hatched & I rarely had a house sparrow problem. .Then the  finch eye problem decimated the finch population to the point I didn't see any for maybe 5-7 yrs. & sparrows moved in.
Sounds like a nasty weather mix for tonight & tomorrow. Drive gently

Hi Deb,

The Blue Jay is a “partially migratory” species. If you google “blue jay migration” you’ll get lots of hits that attempt in a few words (or a few paragraphs) to explain what this means. The persons who asked you to find out why they aren’t seeing Blue Jays this winter might get something (if not satisfaction) out of this one:

Hello,

I've been asked by someone else to find out why they aren't seeing blue jays this year. I actually saw more around this winter than I've seen around here (Sheffield Road, Ithaca/Enfield town line) in a long time.

Any thoughts? Do they really follow the acorn crop? Avian flu?

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese and black birds and more
Yesterday afternoon, I watched as clouds and clouds of snow geese descended across Route 79, going from north to south, and appeared to land in ag fields. I think there were thousands, but there was no way to count but the process went on for 10 minutes or more. I was watching from Sheffield Road, Ithaca/Enfield town line. I drove around but never could find the fields they may have landed in.

This morning, I watched a stream of black birds cross my property from the east and cross Sheffield Road to land across the street in the horse farm there. There were dozens in any cross section you might cut through the stream and it went on for over 5 minutes. I clearly saw a good proportion of grackles, could see their tails. I saw some smaller, compact birds that could have been cowbirds. But other than the grackle tails, I couldn't see anything well enough to identify species.

One interesting point was that a home fuel oil truck drove past and when it went under the stream of birds, they were clearly buffeted by the turbulence. They were about 15 or 20 feet above the truck.

And I saw 7 bluebirds in my yard today.

Around midday today while XC skiing at Bear Swamp, which had a good 6+ inches of snow cover, I flushed from a small snow-free patch of wet grassy muck a snipe or woodcock, which flew off not too far and interestingly looked to have landed on a tree branch at about eye level. Alas without binoculars it was too far to make out. As it flew off I noted a reddish tail, which would imply Wilson's Snipe, though I suppose I could've been seeing some of the reddish underparts of a woodcock.

This afternoon, about 2 PM, I was driving North on Conlon Road in
Lansing.  Just past where Searles Rd extension comes into Conlon Rd. on
the right - at an angle, there are cornfields on both sides.  There were
thousands of Blackbirds on both sides, in the road and in the
surrounding treetops.  As I watched the birds in the road, suddenly a
Yellow-headed Blackbird (male) pops out among the crowd.  I watched it
for about 15 -20 seconds and the whole bunch lifted up and I was able to
follow it for a bit.  I thought it maybe went up into the trees.  I
tried to refind it but did not right away.  Maybe 20 minutes later I was
following a flock that had lifted up and out popped that yellow head and
the white primary coverts.   I followed it for several seconds till the
whole bunch turned and lost it again.

This huge flock was mostly Red-winged, and I spotted some females,
Brown-headed Cowbirds, and Common Grackles.   Quite the spectacle and
sounds!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Mt. Pleasant Snow Buntings
10:30 this morning, a flock of a couple of hundred Snow Buntings was flying around the fields at the east end of Mt Pleasant Road. They were also seen by Steve Fast and me on Sunday morning.
There's not much food up there since the fields were mowed so closely and there are very few weeds, so I can't imagine the buntings will stick around.

While some of you have had Grackles and Red-winged Blackbirds, with hawks and Crows showing off in your yards, I had about 200 Starlings and my usual 25 Pigeons & 4 Crows here , decimating my feeders in the snow today!
Good entertainment for the two indoor cats!

We did have a Rough-legged Hawk seen by a good birder here a couple days ago, but I did not see it. And the local Screech Owl has been seen in his hole off and on. He/she looks asleep, but I can tell it is looking at me from the bottom of its eye slits.

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] A large cluster of Red-winged blackbirds
This morning we were visited by a cluster of more than 200 red-winged
blackbirds at our front yard.
The red-winged blackbirds would fly in and purch on our hickory and other
tall trees, swoop down
to feed at our feeders, then fly off together within a span of 3-4
minutes. This occurred twice
this morning between 10-11am.

It was quite a sight!

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] more blackbirds!
I just had a good 100 Grackles and Red-winged Blackbirds in my Newfield back yard. They flew up into nearby trees after decimating the feeders. Then came a Red-tailed Hawk to perch in one of the trees, and then came 6 Crows to mob the hawk.

It's really starting to sound like spring with all that noisy activity.

The resident Ravens are becoming more active these days as well.

This afternoon I was at Salt Point and noticed a Goose with a pink-orange bill with white around it. The bird was bathing vigorously and showed dark barring on the belly -- Greater White-fronted Goose!
(confirmed by Jay McGowan from photos I showed him later).

I was interrupted while viewing the goose and did not refind it. It had been among the Canada Geese, not far off shore from the little Free Library, where there were also about 20 American Wigeon. There were hundreds of Canada Geese on the north side of Salt Point this afternoon, and I also found one Cackling Goose there.

Low quality digiscope photos are included with my eBird checklist:
https://ebird.org/atlasny/checklist/S129815966.

I hope others can refind the Greater White-fronted Goose tomorrow.

I was interrupted while viewing the goose and did not refind it. It had
been among the Canada Geese, not far off shore from the little Free
Library, where there were also about 20 American Wigeon. There were
hundreds of Canada Geese on the north side of Salt Point this afternoon,
and I also found one Cackling Goose there.

Low quality digiscope photos are included with my eBird checklist:
https://ebird.org/atlasny/checklist/S129815966.

I hope others can refind the Greater White-fronted Goose tomorrow.
