John Greely and I watched a Black-bellied Plover along with a
Semipalmated and a Least Sandpiper at Myers Pt. from ca. 1830-1910
h. As I was leaving the plover took flight and started circling when
some young kids went out on the point.

I hiked Dryden Lake Sunday afternoon. Saw 2 CASPIAN TERNS
and a single CORMORANT on the lake. At the far end by the road
were a family of BLUEBIRDS on the phone lines- 6 or 7 of them,
many fledglings.
Driving home on Malloryville Road were a family of TURKEYS
crossing the road. Lots of BARN
Avocet at Mays is still present and there were Black-bellied Plover,
Semipalmated and Least sandpipers one each were present at Myer's in the
morning..
I sent this by phone from May's but seem to have not been made to Cayugabirds.

+Yesterday about 3pm, I stopped along Cayuga View Rd east of T'Burg to watch a
large flock of starlings amid the cornstalks. Probably 500 or so birds, but
may have been more out of sight in the corn. One common grackle with them.
Brave.
Then I checked out 5 Barn Swallows on the power lines a
I joined Linda and Jessica Orkin in leading a group of 10 birders around
Sapsucker Woods on Sunday morning (7:30-9:10 AM). We found the most bird
activity in the hawthorn trees by the boardwalk next to the feeder garden.
Here we saw two adult male BLACKBURNIAN WARBLERS, a first-fall MAGNOLIA
