We have confirmed a pair of Monk Parakeets building a nest in a barn on the Wickam Farm. The owner and son noticed the birds about 3 days ago. He contacted Kevin (McGown) to come and confirm.
The farm is on 5559 Rt414. This is just North of Sunoco and South of Hector Vineyard. Go down Tango Oaks Road which looks like a double gravel driveway and it is the first barn in the right. The very kind owner welcomes bird watchers and I told him I'd suggest birders patronize the nearby Hazlitt and Hector vineyards in thanks. I'll post a video to the Cayuga Birds Facebook page shortly. ----Lee Ann and Kevin Sent from my iPhone -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
