The Schuyler (Watkins Glen) CBC will be held on 02 Jan 2011. Contact Jack Brubaker, the coordinator, at 535-2356 if you wish to help either as a feeder watcher or in the field. We are always short of field birders.
This count circle centers on 4th and Franklin St in the Glen. As it stands now, Jack will do the waterfront areas and whatever else remains in that and the west sector. Sue and I will do all of the Town of Hector areas including the lakefront, the National Forest portion and inland areas between Seneca and Cayuta Lakes that are within the circle. Barlow Rhodes and Fred Sibley will probably do the Odessa, Cayuta Lake areas. Bill Ostrander normally picks up the southern areas along 414 and the Catharine Valley Trail. If you wish to help one of the field areas you can contact the appropriate field leader and be assigned an area. Please keep an eye out for any unusual birds and let me know. So far we know of one wintering sapsucker in Hector. Will the red-headed Woodpecker return? Owls? You can help even if that is limited to listening for owls or watching your feeders. Results should be called in to Jack (he's not on the net) the following day and/or mailed to him at Seneca Lodge, Watkins Glen. Field helpers contact your sector leader.
