Today I was in Union Springs about 2:00 on my way to give a couple of piano
lessons and I swung by the Mill Pond on Rte 90. A group of Mallards had
collected in the NE corner of the pond, and the light was just right to turn
the heads on all of them a lovely deep blue, some of them a purple blu
Mary Jean, Phil and I took a walk back the gorge trail at Taughannock this
afternoon. Saw two RAVENS, one of which carried a stick to a crevasse below
the overlook point. Then, near the falls, we saw a PEREGRINE FALCON perching
and flying along the north wall.

Hi all,
After almost 5.5 months, I took my Sapsucker Woods lunch walk (but on skis). I
did all trails and some twice.
I did come across many birds, which I used to do in the past. Hoards of
chicakdees, but was looking for my friend "KRAP" but did not see him, but did
see other banded chickadees
This afternoon I took a brief bike trip to the southwest corner of Cayuga Lake.
I had to stop enroute at Cass Park to identify a raptor circling high over
West Hill: an immature BALD EAGLE. Later from my vantage on the west shore of
the lake I watched an adult BALD EAGLE fly from the vicinity
Aside from the usually expected winter species I had a BROWN-HEADED COWBIRD
show up at my feeders this morning. The EVENING GROSBEAK is still hanging
around, and gave Shannon goods looks at a life bird for her this morning.

Cayugabirders,
The Greater White-fronted Goose continued this morning at Myers Point
in Lansing. It was initially quite close inside the lighthouse marina
but moved over to Ladoga Point eventually.
Cheers,
Tom
