[cayugabirds-l] new feeder bird
Sunday we added a new feeder bird to our list. About 10 days ago, I picked up a road kill and placed it in the field to the north of our house a bit beyond our bird feeders in hopes of attracting turkey vultures. On Sunday two turkey vultures showed up at our bait!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] BROWN THRASHER
Ken, Yours may be the first migrant Brown Thrasher this year in the Basin, but two were found overwintering in February. The first was on Ferguson Road west of Dryden, showing up at a feeder when a big snowstorm hit, then staying for over a month. The second was noted by Jay McGowan on NYS-89 in Covert. - - Dave Nutter > On Apr 5, 2021, at 11:15 AM, Ken Haas wrote: > > This morning I had a Brown Thrasher in my yard foraging in the leaf litter > and along the back edge of the lawn.

[cayugabirds-l] BROWN THRASHER
This morning I had a Brown Thrasher in my yard foraging in the leaf litter and along the back edge of the lawn. Ebird listed it as rare so I though I better get some pictures. Link below. I guess this might be an FOY for the basin. Sure is for my property.
