Hi Laura,
When gathered in large flocks they actually strike me as being _more_ skittish;
perhaps it's a compounding effect. Makes sense in a way. There may be no

They're eating black oil sunflower seed too, but they spill a lot of that on
the ground, possibly through rummaging for the smallest seeds.
I expect the standard sanitization advice is still to wash feeders thoroughly

More Snow Geese are passing south out of the basin on this morning's brisk tail

During the last hour, about 1,000 Canada and 300 Snow Geese flew over my head

high hilltops (circa 1900 feet) seemed to scrape the cloud ceiling earlier, but
perhaps it is lifting enough to embolden migrants...

The basin boundary outlined on that map definitely needs editing, at least

It was fun to see an Osprey perching on the pole-mounted nest
platform at Treman Marine Park this morning. In spite of the dog-
walking traffic on the trail that encircles the site, the bird
persisted for more than an hour (all the time I had).

I can't remember any mention of gobbling yet, but it's been going on
at my place every morning for about a week. I've also heard Ruffed
Grouse drumming.
No Redpolls at my feeders lately, but I do see them overhead
occasionally. About 30 went over this morning.

I noticed large flocks of Snow Geese over West Danby a couple of days
ago, headed south.

I'll add my salute to Dave Nutter!
Also, the Redpolls around my little 4-perch niger feeder numbered
close to 100 this morning.

I expected the Redpolls would go off as the snow melted this morning,
but now the ground is finally bare and I have about 50 coming to my
West Danby feeders.

Common Redpolls (just 2 adult males so far) have joined the
Goldfinches at my niger feeder in West Danby this morning.
