Re: [cayugabirds-l] Thorpe road Gyrfalcon

2017-01-05 Thread Asher Hockett

Check the legs for jesses. They use a Gyrfalcon to keep gulls away from the

[cayugabirds-l] Airport and Lott farm Snowies up to 4.

2017-01-05 Thread metetlow
Yesterday around 330 Dominic Sherony and I had one snow owl at the lot farm 
rotating between the grass as previously described and up on the Porta potty's 
and three more snowy owls at the airport, one prominently on the west side of 
the runway and the other 2 hunkered down behind tiny snowbanks and tiny grass 
mounds also on the west side. Please minimize disturbance because I know 
attempts  are going to be made to band the two that have not been banded.
