To get to the marsh, you drive down route 26, the google earth address is 1329 union center maine highway, endicott, ny. You basically drive down route 26 and turn right before you get to the Ann G. McGuinness Intermediate School. There is a road which leads up to the soccer fields for the chool. The Marsh is on the corner of route 26/union center main highway and the road that leads to the soccer fields. I put the location on e-bird as a proposed hotspot. You can park by the marsh. The road overlooks it from above so you can get good views. I did not see the bird either as I was travelling and could not make it back before dark. I will likely be down there first thing tomorrow morning since it is rainy and poor weather now and the bird was seen at 730 pm. It likely could be there at first light. If anyone sees it tomorrow, please post to either bluewing or cayuga birds. I will make sure it gets to both listserves. Also some photos would be awesome.

Lots of beautiful RW Blackbirds, male and female, Canadas, Wood Ducks, Tree Swallows, Mallards and at the northwest corner of the swamp was a brilliantly-colored Yellow-headed Blackbird (male). Several male RW Blackbirds harassed the Yellow-head but the Yellow-head would return to a stick at the same place in the swamp.
