I had a scope, so I did get long, excellent looks at the bird, over a period of 20-30 minutes. I don't have a camera capable of getting a picture, however. The bird was mostly a nondescript brown, with a warmer brown head. The most distinctive marks were bright white forewings visible as a line on the side (visible with the naked eye and binoculars), also very visible as the bird extended its wings as it dove. There was no other white on the bird. The other distinctive characteristic was the head, with a sloping bill that (through the scope) had a faint yellow-greenish color. This was difficult to see, but the shape of the head was not like any other duck I've seen here (though I've seen Eiders in Scandinavia); probably closest to a canvasback in the slopy shape. This bird, however, was more stout, with a short neck relative to the overall dimensions. A small flock of red breasted mergansers arrived as I watched this duck, and I noted that they were as large or slightly larger than it (though it was distinctly larger than the buffleheads closer to shore. I spent some time looking through Peterson to see if there was anything else that it could possibly be, but nothing had the white patch, head shape, size, etc. *** You received this message because you are subscribed to eBird's Needs Alert for Tompkins Manage your eBird alert subscriptions: http://ebird.org/ebird/alerts -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Harrier
Don't know where you are, but there's at least one male Northern Harrier in Trumansburg. Saw it sitting on a limb over Trumansburg Creek one afternoon in February, right across from Gimme Coffee (where it drew a small crowd), then spotted it again two days ago cruising low over a field along Congress St. Extension.

I did 3 miles on it, but no grackle. I stopped along Purvis Rd. on the way home and hit the jackpot. Along with many ROBINS, and hundreds of STARLINGS, there were 75+ GRACKLES, and an equal number of male RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS. To top the day off, there was a RED-SHOULDERED HAWK at the top of Grove School Rd., perched 10' from the roadedge. May be one of the residents.
