The flooded fields on armitage road west of Olmsted have attracted a good 
number of shorebirds including blackbelly plover lb dowitchers dunlan both 
yellow legs pectoral sandpipers. Likely over 100 birds.
Ducks seem to be concentrated on the north side of the road and shorebirds on 
the south along roadside

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Pine Siskins

2020-10-21 Thread Susan Norvell
We're swamped with Pine Siskins here in the Belle Sherman area in Ithaca. We 
had two about a week ago, and the number has grown since. At least 15 clustered 
at the base of our seed feeder yesterday and this morning, while another 6 eat 
at the perches. They are nearly impossible to count while on the ground. They 
pack so tightly together while feeding it looks a bit like a rugby scrum.
