Orange wing-tags on Great Egrets at Chantry and Nottawasaga Islands
Unfortunately, the NYSDEC was unable to band Great Egrets on Motor Island
in the Niagara River this June because of the early nesting due to our
unusually warm March and April and other priorities such a cormorant control.
Clearing skies and 25 kt southwest winds made for interesting birding
conditions on the Lake Erie shore. Highlight was 9 AMERICAN AVOCET and 2
WILLET at the Cattaraugus Creek outlet between Angola and Silver Creek. They
were on the north side of the creek just east of the north
The American White Pelican was present at its usual spot on the beach as of
6:00 this morning. #
