Re: [cayugabirds-l] Rose Breasted Grosbeak
Melissa Groo's place is just outside the Cayuga Lake Basin in Shindagin Hollow. We're still waiting for a report that Rose-breasted Grosbeaks got over the Chesapeake - Great Lakes Divide into the CLB. --Dave Nutter On Apr 29, 2014, at 02:28 PM, Asher Hockett wrote: > Melissa Groo reported one yesterday. > > > On Tue, Apr 29, 2014 at 1:35 PM, Carol Keeler wrote: > > A friend in Jordan, NY just had a RB Grosbeak at her feeder.

[cayugabirds-l] Thanks!
Wouldn't you know my email wasn't working right yesterday and only a few messages got through, so I missed Melissa's post. Thanks for letting me know. No one has seen a Hummingbird yet, have they?

[cayugabirds-l] Rose Breasted Grosbeak
A friend in Jordan, NY just had a RB Grosbeak at her feeder. Has anyone seen them in the Cayuga bird list area? I don't remember seeing any mentioned. Any Hummingbirds yet?

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Raven carrying food
Raven nests can get to be pretty noisy places, and you may easily hear the nestlings begging, even from half a mile away. The racket gets louder and deeper day by day! -Geo On Apr 29, 2014, at 9:06 AM, "Marie P.

[cayugabirds-l] Inlet Eagles
Finished up a run yesterday evening at 6:45pm, and standing at the north edge of the Children's Garden, Kate and I observed two Bald Eagles--one adult, and one that showed no traces of white. No bins, but we were directly across the road--at one point they were only 30-40 yards away. They came form the direction of the lake, and were swooping low over the inlet in close quarters. At one point seemed to touch talons briefly. We saw the young bird drop to the surface followed almost immediately along the same orientation by the adult. The young eagle appeared successful in his attempt, and continued with his prey south along the inlet, and out of site. After 5-10 seconds, we took our eyes off of the young bird and were surprised that neither of us could re-locate the adult.

[cayugabirds-l] Common Raven carrying food
Hi Cayugabirders, Half an hour ago I was hanging out in the swamp behind my property searching for nesting flickers, when a Common Raven carrying food in its bill flew over (north to south, heading toward Yellow Barn Forest area). It was being chased by a couple of crows. The food item was somewhat elongated and curled, maybe something like a really large earthworm. It's been thought for a long time that ravens nested in the Yellow Barn area, but this is the first time I've personally seen solid evidence.
