Re: [cayugabirds-l] permission needed for Empire State Farm Days fairgrounds

[Dave Nutter]

Chuck (& all)I have only talked on the phone, but I believe their office is among the farm buildings, silos, etc, on the west side of the fairgrounds, on NYS-414 just north of Martin Rd, approximately opposite the end of County House Rd.--Dave NutterOn Apr 19, 2011, at 06:25 PM, chuck gibson  wrote:

[cayugabirds-l] Chimney Swift

[Dave Nutter]

This afternoon I had to be in my car, yet I also had several hours to spare, so I succumbed to the attraction of Upland Sandpipers and Grasshopper Sparrows.  I found 2 UPLAND SANDPIPERS from Martin Rd, then with permission drove the roads within the fairgrounds and had better views of 4 of them.  I struck out on the Grasshopper Sparrows, perhaps because they were quieter later in the day, perhaps because I spent so much time inside the fairgrounds instead of listening longer from the road as Nathan et al did.  On my way home along NYS-89 at the corner of Vineyard Rd in Romulus I saw a single CHIMNEY SWIFT foraging among a flock of TREE SWALLOWS with a few BARN SWALLOWS.  I thought it was a basin first for the year until I consulted eBird and found that Ken Rosenberg had a Chimney Swift from his yard on April 11th.--Dave Nutter

[cayugabirds-l] Cornell Fish Crows

[J. Gary Kohlenberg]

Hi all, 

I saw and heard my first Fish Crows at Cornell today. Two of them were mobbing 
a Red-tail over Ives Hall.

At the swan pen this afternoon, in the rain, were a couple, crisp looking, 
Yellow-rumped Warblers, three Palm Warblers and a Ruby-crowned Kinglet. A Rusty 
Blackbird was calling by the pump house in Jetty Woods along with a loudly 
whistling Osprey overhead.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] permission needed for Empire State Farm Days fairgrounds

[Nathan Williams]

Agreed, please respect people's property!  We just went along the public 
paved road this morning and still had amazing looks at the Upland 
Sandpipers, who were only a few feet from the road.  One was standing 
atop a roadside gatepost and provided excellent views as we drove by.  
That said, since these birds are so close to the road sometimes, take 
care not to stop too close and spook them.

Happy (and safe) birding!

Nathan

Re: [cayugabirds-l] upland sandpipers

[Nathan Williams]

This morning, I went to the Seneca Empire Days Fairgrounds fields with 
Gaelyn Ong, Abby Duvall, and Erica Roper.  Highlights include 2 UPLAND 
SANDPIPERS, 2 HORNED LARKS, an EASTERN MEADOWLARK, and 3 GRASSHOPPER 
SPARROWS.  A SNOW GOOSE also flew over in with a small flock of Canada 
Geese.


Happy Birding!

Nathan
