Re: [cayugabirds-l] Where are all my feeder birds

2017-10-18 Thread Melanie Uhlir
Interesting to see that this is happening on a widespread basis. I had 
been going through mealworms, suet, and thistle seed in my feeders like 
crazy and then all of a sudden -- no birds. I figured it probably had to 
do with the abundance of wild food available. I'm glad that seems to be 
the consensus.

Same thing in Union Center near Endicott. 

I was scared it may have been due to West Niles Virus. We have, however a good 
assortment of Chickadees, Cardinals, Blue Jays, Downey Hairy Red-bellied and 
Pileated as well as a resident Golden-crowned Kinglet all in the trees berry 
bushes and shorter plants with seeds. 

Thanks Kevin for reassuring us they will come back to the feeders!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Where are all my feeder birds

2017-10-18 Thread Donna Lee Scott
Cedar trees around here are packed with ripening little blue fruits. Oddly, my 
Red Oaks don't have many acorns (didn't last year either), but hickory nuts 
(Shagbark & Pig Nut), & Black Walnuts are all over the ground.
I am waiting for Cedar Waxwings to come eat Cedar fruits!

This seems to be a widespread phenomenon. There is just so much food in the

I have noticed a dramatic drop in the squirrel population and feeder birds SW 
shore Cayuga Lake in the past two months. I like to photograph squirrels so I 
noticed. Saw one lactating female about two weeks ago, and that's it. Up until 
a couple months ago I also had flying squirrels visiting every night, now 
nothing. There's a bonanza acorn crop, so maybe the squirrels don't need to

Same here on Lansing Station Rd.
Few feeder birds, last few weeks, & no squirrels, when I usually have 10.
I thought this might be due to birds & SQs finding seeds & nuts from fall
