Thanks everyone for your help! Hero is home ☺ Best, AM From: bounce-118141876-3493...@list.cornell.edu [mailto:bounce-118141876-3493...@list.cornell.edu] On Behalf Of Anne Marie Sheridan Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2014 9:38 AM To: CAYUGABIRDS-L Subject: [cayugabirds-l] FW: Lost African Grey Parrot in Ithaca, Triphammer Campus location All, I am forwarding a note from another list-serve about a lost African grey, an emotional service bird, last seen near the Triphammer edge of Cornell campus. As you are out and about, please contact: Alyson at 760-331-9872 if you see/hear “Hero.” Thank you for your eyes, ears! Sincerely, Anne Marie [Inline image 1] ** Hey Everyone, Thanks for the concern you all have expressed. Unfortunately, the parrot was not retrieved. But, Alyson is organizing a search group tomorrow (Tuesday, Oct. 7) at 7:15 am. Here is her message below: Lost parrot update: my African grey, Hero, was spooked yesterday outside of Triphammer co-op. We located him this evening, but he moved to a different tree before we were able to retrieve him. A group is meeting at Triphammer tomorrow morning (7:15am) to search the local streets. If you can come, please come, if not, please keep your eyes open for him! Here are some photos. He is a little smaller than a crow, mostly grey, with a red tail. He is totally docile and very friendly. If you see him, PLEASE call me at 760-331-9872. If you are close enough to pick him up, please bring him indoors. He is an emotional service animal, and extremely important to me. It's imperative that we find him soon, before temperatures drop and food becomes difficult for him to find.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Surf Scoter, Great Egret
When I was watching the Cattle Egrets on Stevenson Rd about 9:30., I spotted an egret circling up high with the vultures — it turned out to be a GREAT EGRET, which then flew off to the northwest. Likely the same bird that appeared at Stewart Park soon after. KEN Kenneth V.

[cayugabirds-l] Cattle Egret on Cayuga inlet
A single Cattle Egret just flew north along the Cayuga Inlet over a swarm of Crew boats. Didn't have my binoculars on me, so I lost it among some gulls before I could see where it headed once it got to the mouth of the inlet.

[cayugabirds-l] Bluegrass Lane CATTLE EGRET
Hi all, Five of the CATTLE EGRETS were flying ESE over the red barns at Bluegrass Lane about 20-30 minutes ago. They were flying in a tight group. Earlier I had a single bird soaring with the gulls that seemed to be heading west, but I lost track of it. The only other sighting of note was a very high group of about 50 SNOW GEESE flying south in a messy V. - Brad -- 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/ --
Re: [cayugabirds-l] Bluegrass Lane CATTLE EGRET
A CATTLE EGRET just flew north up the east shore of Cayuga Lake from Stewart Park, loosely associating with a handful of gulls.

[cayugabirds-l] Stewart Park: a few autumn birds
I spent a couple hours (3-5pm) at Stewart Park, mainly scoping the lake jetties from the swan pond, wondering if any Cattle Egrets would venture there with the gulls. I guess I didn't stay late enough or beat the bushes along the lakeshore enough because I found none, nor did I find any among the gulls at Treman Marina afterward. What I did find was: * a/the GREAT EGRET on the white lighthouse jetty among the gulls (who gave it a respectful distance) until an adult BALD EAGLE flew fairly high overhead, and the egret gulls took flight. I saw the egret a couple times in flight, the last time going east, but I didn't see it along the shoreline later. * at least 5 PIED-BILLED GREBES earlier in the SE corner of the lake, one of which still had some juvenile striping on the face. I met Gary Kohlenberg who I think tallied more. Yesterday there was a group of 9. * a female RUDDY DUCK flew out to the lake, apparently from the mouth of Fall Creek, and alit not far from the swan pond, a first-of-season for both Gary myself * a small flock of AMERICAN COOTS off the swan pond which in recent days has grown from 2 (Sunday) to 5 (yesterday) to 9 (today) * before Gary's arrival, while scanning the skies over the east side of the valley in Lansing I found a long-winged, long-tailed raptor flying into the wind, occasionally pausing with a dihedral, and showing white at the base of the tail. It turned out to be my first-of-season ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK, a light morph, and it proceeded to fly west across Cayuga Lake, affording nice scope views of the underwing and tail patterns. --Dave Nutter -- 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/ --
