[cayugabirds-l] Mallard x Northern Pintail hybrid, Myers Point

All, Livia and I checked Myers Point this morning before work. The dabbler concentration there was stunning, especially off the marina. Still no shovelers or Blue-winged Teal, but the rest of the expected dabblers were all in good numbers. Aythya and other divers are down, and no sign of the Tufted

Just watched four Vs of Snow Geese overhead heading toward Ithaca, beautiful against the blue sky. I thought I spotted a very small goose in one of the flocks, but after getting the binocs, it turned out to be a blue phase whose darker wings blended in with the sky. All the rest of the geese we

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Great Horned Owl Golf Course

I think the nest and owl can be seen from Cass Park too - from the backstop labelled B2, on the field between the skating rink and the inlet, look directly east. There's a group of three or four conifers, and then one conifer alone just to the right of the group. Behind that conifer is a reddish

[cayugabirds-l] Woodcock

Out first American Woodcock of the year began “peenting” tonight. Lots of calls, one “sky dance”, then quiet. Snyder Hill area. We’ve had as many as seven in the neighborhood before. Here’s hoping . . . . Bob McGuire -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME
