[cayugabirds-l] Mammals at MNWR today

2011-05-24 Thread John and Fritzie Blizzard
Daughter, Becky,  I spotted a RED FOX trotting in the road just past the first 
turn at the refuge off 5  20. She headed onto the main drive where we saw 
BALTIMORE ORIOLES  flitting YELLOW WARBLERS.

We followed her all the way to where people can walk the trail along the canal 
area, getting several good pictures. The fox really didn't look very healthy. 
She squatted twice as if having difficulty relieving herself. Her fur color is 
dull  hair at the base of the tail looked coarse  scrungy . maybe the 
start of mange. Black leg color was poor. Also, tip of the tail wasn't a good 
firm white. 

Just at the start of Larue's Lagoon we saw a typically fuzzy fox kit/pup 
walking rather aimlessly along the road, back  forth. It stopped to drink from 
a puddle as it walked along, perhaps looking for its parent. We took several 
pictures  even managed to drive right up beside it before it turned  went 
running back the way it had come.

Further on, about 1/2 way between Larue's  the carp ladder, I saw an 
odd-looking, small animal running along the road towards us. I stopped so we 
got good looks at a WEASEL, CARRYING A MOUSE almost as big as it was 

At the mudflats we saw 2 DUNLIN. We saw other feathers but these things were 
the highlights.

 Where are all the Field Sparrows?  The severe mowing of the powerline cut
 beside my house could account for the lack of my regular yard one, but I
 haven’t heard a single song this spring.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Purple Martin over Ithaca

2011-05-24 Thread Jay McGowan
I saw a single Least Sandpiper and a Semipalmated Sandpiper on the spit at
Myers this morning, but that was all.

 I heard a familiar musical chortling around 5:30 this evening, and stepped
outside to see a male PURPLE MARTIN flying north over my house in full song.
Seems an odd date for a migrant? Still 2 singing BLACKPOLL WARBLERS in the
yard today, along with a female AMERICAN REDSTART.

 Has anyone been checking Myer's Point for shorebirds?
