A single Rusty Blackbird showed up at my feeder today, much to my surprise.

I had a flock of about 15 blackbirds, most of which were Rusty at the Montezuma 
Audubon Center a week or two ago during a winter raptor survey. Certainly 
unexpected this time of year, but given how mild the winter has been in 
general, not unheard of. Nice birds and a welcome sight!

[cayugabirds-l] Robins

Just looked out the window and there are 3+ Am Robins sitting in the privet 
next to the house. Guess the snow has baffled them.

Thanks, everyone, for your responses to my query. It looks like Agway is the 
place to buy a copy locally.

Good birding,

[cayugabirds-l] A couple of winter finches

2021-01-29 Thread Ken Haas
Three days ago I had the pleasure of hosting an EVENNG GROSBEAK to my feeder. A 
singular adult male chowed down the black oil sunflower alongside Cardinals and 
Chickadees. But only for a half an hour and then he was gone. But later that 
day, and continuing through today, a COMMON REDPOLL male is joining the 
increasing numbers of Goldfinches at the nyjer feeder. Luckily, they both 
appeared on one of my Project Feeder Watch count days!

[cayugabirds-l] Rust Blackbirds

2021-01-29 Thread Claire Damaske
Is anyone else getting these?  I live on Gravel Rd in Tyre north of the
thruway.  We started out with 3 Cowbirds last week.  Then 3 Starlings and a
couple Red-winged Blackbirds joined them.  Two days ago we were up to 40
Cowbirds and yesterday there were about 40 Rusty Blackbirds too!  How
unusual is this?
