Then realized I don't have my cell phone, scope and not even binoculars. But still decided to continue. At the point there were a few gulls, a few Ring-billed, a couple of Great Black-backed and a few Herring gulls were visible. Far away on the water I saw some smaller and some larger ducks, may be because some were closer to the spot I was watching from and the others were further away. As Suan noted starlings were happy in Myers too as they sang various tones. Then on the way back I decided to drive via Cayuga Vista road to check if there was any No. shrike, but there was no shrike. But I did see a couple of No. Mockingbirds that were being kind of harassed by a large flock of starlings. Then there was a Hairy Woodpecker that was pecking away at a dead branch. On the whole I have 6 species on my list for the new year. I did not even hear a chickadee since the last two days I have been here! Cheers Meena PS: I found quite a few poplars have been cut down at Myers, no idea why? And also there are some new gaming places with some kind of board. I am not sure what game is that but surely a local game. Somebody seem to be "improving" the park.
