The Cayuga Bird Club is in the process of revising (updating, adding to) the Basin Bird Guide and intends to have the Second Edition out in the spring. Since it was published in 2012 we have sold over 1700 copies. In the past ten years a couple of the sites have become extinct and several new ones have appeared.
We are looking for “site shots” for the Hile School Road Marsh, the Genung Preserve (FTTL property in Freeville), and the newly-open portions of the Dryden Rail Trail. Since none of those sites are particularly conducive to winter birding, we cannot simply go out and get the shot today. Hopefully someone will have taken some in the greener days of the past few years! The purpose of the photo is to represent the site and be compelling enough to make someone what to visit. Ideally the shot would have people in it (for scale and interest) and show them birding. If you have anything you think might be appropriate, please send the image to me at the address below. Credit for the photo? None of the photos in the book carry credit lines for a specific photo. The photographers are credited by name in the “acknowledgements” section. Thanks, in advance, for you help.
