[cayugabirds-l] Oriole

2022-03-19 Thread Tobias Dean
This morning I spotted a bright orange object in the orchard, thought a
raven might have dropped a tangerine skin. I went out to look and as I came
round the house the ravens had spotted it and one hopped over, grabbed it
and flew away. I found a bunch of orange feathers strewn about, a hawk or
one the local barred owls must have hit it.
March 19 fr Northern Oriole? seems early

Our arrival date based on 36 years is May 6th. One mile south of the FLNF
in the western section of the CL Basin.

I photographed what was left of the feathers and was told it was probably a
cardinal but I’ve never seen a nearly fluorescent orange cardinal. Thanks
to our Ravens we will never be sure!

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese Video

2022-03-19 Thread Suan Hsi Yong
If you missed the snow goose spectacle earlier this month, I put
together a video:

  https://youtu.be/rOWvblegw1Y

It sounds like the mucklands flock may have left? But conceivably some
on Cayuga Lake may still be around?
