Susie & I saw a flock of at least 20 SNOW BUNTINGS around noon along Carncross Rd, Montezuma. She heard them close by, but it took a while to actually see them walking on the snow among the corn stubble. S. & S. Fast Brooktondale _ From: bounce-76451343-9286...@list.cornell.edu [

A redtail hawk was sitting (brooding?) on the nest visible from the Stewart Ave bridge over Fall Creek, on the northside cliff looking east (upstream). This has got to be one of the most incredible nest vantages anywhere, ever. Suan _ http://suan-yong.com -- Cayugabirds-L Li

This morning I had a surprisingly large number (for late March) of Snow Buntings: a flock of ca 28, feeding with ca 55 Horned Larks in fields west of Bluegrass Lane.
