Re: [cayugabirds-l] injured female cardinal

2017-09-11 Thread Donna Lee Scott
Take the bird to Cornell Vet school wildlife clinic.
Phone 253-3060 for instructions.
Janet Swanson wildlife clinic.

Catch it by gently putting a medium sized towel over it & scooping it up in the 
towel, if you can.
Transfer to a small pet crate or a box you can close up to transport to Vet 
School. They Probably will want you to go to small animal clinic opposite large 
B-parking lot that is along side Rt. 366.

Clinic will assess injury to bird and decide if it can be saved.

[cayugabirds-l] Support the Montezuma Wetlands and the Cayuga Bird Club Muckrace team!

2017-09-11 Thread Diane Morton
This weekend is the Montezuma Muckrace, a 24-hour bird-a-thon to find as
many bird species as possible within the 242-square-mile area that
comprises the Montezuma wetlands complex. The Cayuga Bird Club will be
sponsoring our "Arrogant Bustards" team in this year's Muckrace, with Susan
Danskin, Ann Mitchell, Diane Morton, Ken Kemphues, Dave Nutter, Gary
Kohlenberg, Dierdre Anderson and Bob McGuire. We will be competing in the
"recreational" category.

If you'd like to make a donation in support of the Arrogant Bustards team
(or any other team) for this fundraiser, you can do that online at the
Montezuma Muckrace website:
http://friendsofmontezuma.org/projects-programs/muckrace/  (or download a
pledge form to mail).

The Montezuma Wetlands Complex is a major migration stopover for waterfowl,
shorebirds, and land birds, and provides breeding habitat for several
species of conservation concern, including Bald Eagles, Black Terns, and
Cerulean Warblers.  The Montezuma Wetlands Complex was designated an
Important Bird Area of global significance in 1997. Last year's Muckrace
raised over $10,000 for use on habitat restoration, removal of invasive
plants, improvement of water level management and other projects.

Help us support this important center of bird conservation that lies at the
north end of our Cayuga Lake basin!

Susan, Ann, Diane, Ken, Gary, Dave, Dierdre and Bob
The Arrogant Bustards

[cayugabirds-l] Reminder: Cayuga Bird Club September 11 meeting

2017-09-11 Thread Laura Stenzler


Today, September 11, is be the next monthly meeting of the Cayuga Bird Club, 
which is free and opened to the public. 7:30 at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.

Club Members are invited to join our speaker,  Amanda Rodewald, for dinner at 
Taste of Thai Express (downtown on Rt. 13N) just before the meeting at 5:30 
p.m. Please RSVP to Laura Stenzler (l...@cornell.edu) 
by 3 this afternoon.

We are looking forward to hearing Amanda D. Rodewald, Ph.D., Garvin Professor 
of Ornithology and Director of Conservation Science, Cornell University Robert 
F. Schumann Faculty Fellow, Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Department of 
Natural Resources; Faculty Fellow, Atkinson Center for a Sustainable Future, 
Cornell University.
Her presentation will be -  In the Thick of It: How Invasive Plants Affect 
Breeding Birds
Invasive species are among the most serious conservation threats to native 
biodiversity. Invasive plants, in particular, can affect birds by altering food 
and nesting resources. Recent studies also show that invasive plants can 
increase the vulnerability of breeding birds to nest predators.  Dr. Rodewald 
will discuss a decade of research showing how Amur honeysuckle (Lonicera 
maackii), one of the most problematic exotic and invasive shrubs in eastern 
forests, influences predator-prey interactions in urbanizing landscapes.
As both a faculty member in the Cornell Department of Natural Resources and 
Director of Conservation Science at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Amanda 
Rodewald works to generate, apply, and communicate science in ways that advance 
understanding of ecology and also support conservation. Her research program 
seeks to understand the behavioral and demographic mechanisms guiding 
population, community, and landscape-scale responses of birds to land use 
change and human activity in the eastern US and Latin America.
The meeting will be held at the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology. All are 
welcome. Doors open at 7:00 pm and there will be cookies and conversation 
starting at 7:15. Bird club business begins at 7:30 pm followed by the 
presentation. Members: Please remember to review the annual proposed budget in 
the newsletter before our vote at this meeting.
