[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant Road birds
A few observations from Mt Pleasant today: this morning around 9:30 there was a flock of at least 30 Wild Turkeys among the Canada Geese in the field just west of the observatory. And this afternoon around 3:00, three Snow Buntings were flying around with a dozen or so Horned Larks in the fields at the eastern end of the road.

[cayugabirds-l] American White Pelican
Tim Lenz found an American white pelican on the red lighthouse jetty about an hour ago. The bird was visible naked eye as a white blob from Stewart Park around 430, and after rushing to Hog Hole to try to see it from there in the fading light, I saw a large White thing swimming away from the red jetty towards the white jetty and Stewart Park. So, it seems possible that it will still be here in the morning.

[cayugabirds-l] Screech-Owl in Caroline
We heard from a friend that the Eastern Screech-Owl was back in the tree behind the Dandy Mart on Rt. 79 in Slaterville Springs yesterday. She spotted it at 4:30 pm. For a couple of years an owl has roosted in a cavity in a tree at the edge of the pavement behind the gas station/store. You can see the cavity plainly from the parking spaces on the left side of the building (facing the building from Rt. 79). The hole is about level with the parking lot light nearby and faces the parking lot. If you don't see a hole, there's a good chance the owl is in it.
