The Western Tanager was present outside of Day Hall just after noon today
(Thursday, March 10). It took a while, but it eventually made an appearance
with the House Sparrows visiting the seeds on a window ledge on Day Hall, then
it disappeared into the conifers by the College store.

RE: No Feeding Geese Ordinance
As part of a city-wide effort to better manage the Canada goose population and
protect
our wildlife, the City of Ithaca has been working to come up with a humane
management
plan that addresses the needs
On Tuesday I attended part of a City of Ithaca Parks Commission meeting to
learn about a potential new Osprey platform to be installed in Cass Park near
my house. I was surprised to walk in on the tail end of a discussion of hazing
geese and banning waterfowl feeding on all City-owned lands. Ove
Snow Geese: I drove up the lake and around the Montezuma Complex today. The
only concentration of Snow Geese I found was about 6,000 in a corn field on
Wiley Road, just west of Rt 89, south of Savannah. None at Mud Lock. None at
East Road. None in the Mucklands. None on Carncross Road.

Hi all,
Just a reminder that I'll be leading a CBC field trip up the lake this
Sunday.
Meet at the lab at 8am, which is earlier than you think due to spring ahead!
Although scheduled to end at 4pm, I'm aiming to be back earlier than that,
unless the snow goose spectacle is still around (are they s

I know a little more than nothing about molt progression, but I haven't seen
any changes during the times I've been observing.

Before a week ago, I had observed Pileated, Hairy, Downy, Flicker, and
Sapsuckers at one point or another (in past years) doing the ‘flicka-flicka’
type interaction where a pair (sometimes M-F, sometimes M-M) were ascending a
pole or tree and playing hide-and-seek while doing this vocalization.
A very light sprinkle, and I'm working with the door open. There sure are lots
of bird voices around my yard this morning! A Song Sparrow seems to be the only
new arrival, unless there are newcomers among the Juncos that are trilling from
all directions. But Cardinals, Robins, Jays, Crows, Raven
Nice photos. I see no progression of molt from when I photographed the bird on
27 Feb: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S27850362. Does anyone else
see any changes?

A friend in Lansing, on East Shore Circle, saw a male hummingbird on Tuesday
evening. It was looking for the feeder which, of course, hadn't been put out
yet. It seems way too early for hummingbirds.

The Western Tanager was enjoying the fruits of a tree in Wee Stinky Glen
yesterday morning (March 9) shortly after 9 am, on a branch above the path that
goes by the bench near the upper entrance of the Cornell Store. A few photos:
