[cayugabirds-l] Gyrfalcon at Hoster Rd. Quarry

[Gary Kohlenberg]

After missing the Gyrfalcon in the Seneca Stone Quarry, Hoster Rd., this 
morning it returned about 2:45 pm to the trees on the mound near the big rock 
crusher. 
Flying in low from the lake to the trees have us wonderful views. Unfortunately 
where it perched in the fork of a cottonwood tree it was partially obscured and 
later dropped out of sight. 
As in previous years the prime time seems to be early morning and mid to late 
afternoon. Presumably it’s hunting in between times near the lake and roosting 
at the Quarry.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Mt. Pleasant Common Redpolls...

[Jane Leff]

At 1pm, redpolls are still there! I parked at the corner of Mount Pleasant
and the unmarked road of towers, (not to be confused with Tower Rd.) About
0.2 mile up that unmarked road, on left in the overgrown fields, were
swarms of redpolls! I cheated and used the Merlin recordings to attract
them & boy did it work! They came right up to me and swarmed all around me.
Heaven!

[cayugabirds-l] Loons over Seneca

[John Gregoire]

Did anyone do a watch on Cayuga today? While the winds weren't all that
promising it looked like the last possibility for a good while so
for comparison's sake I checked out Seneca Lake at Smith Park.

It was dismal. Had 1 between 0715 and 0730 then 13 between 0800 and 0830.
By 0900 it began to rain and I left.

There were several Loons in the water, calling now and then. Had a lot of
fun watching a Pileated feeding on wild grapes hanging from a tree.

[cayugabirds-l] Sandhill Cranes Knox Marcellus

[Dave K]

Counted 250+ on the ground  9am today and don't know how many  had already left 
as there was a steady flight to the North.
I'm betting over 300 are in the area.
