This morning an Osprey on the Union field light pole swooped down to the grass,
appeared to grab something tiny, alight back on the pole, then swoop down again
and appear to grab something invisible to me, and go back up onto the pole. The
pole was swaying a bit in the wind.

There was a lone Snow Goose strolling along the daffodil part of the Waterfront
Trail just south of Cass Park Rink this morning. It seemed healthy although I
didn't see it fly. I circled back around after a tour of three occupied Osprey
nests and it was gone.

I’m noticing a continuous flow of Crows from north to south along the southwest
shore of the lake. Didn’t catch the beginning, and it has t ended, but observed
hundreds in about 10 min of staring.

At least one Osprey on nest at south end of Treman park, visible from my living
room north of Hog Hole. I thought I saw a lump on the nest through binocs, and
then an Osprey soared in and landed.

Approximately 5:20 pm today I noticed a steady flight of Crows from my vantage
just north of Hog Hole, heading approximately toward Cayuga Heights/Cornell
Campus, moving in the approximately the opposite direction of the large morning
flight of 2/17. I don’t know the extent of today’s flight, I
Shortly before sunrise this morning I noticed out the window a stream (actually
a river) of Crows flying north following the west shore of Cayuga Lake. To
attempt to count them I recorded a 20 sec video, and was able to count 270 by
examining it slowly. The steady flight, which seemed to origi

Glad to see two Ospreys standing on the Union Field light pole nest this

A male Baltimore Oriole landed on my hammock today, a bit north of Hog Hole.
There’s usually a nest in my yard.

I have noticed a dramatic drop in the squirrel population and feeder birds SW
shore Cayuga Lake in the past two months. I like to photograph squirrels so I
noticed. Saw one lactating female about two weeks ago, and that's it. Up until
a couple months ago I also had flying squirrels visiting ever
