I heard and saw my first Fish Crows this morning at blue grass lane. I don’t know enough about them to surmise where they’ve been or if they’ve been here and quiet since the summer. Regardless it was another very welcome voice added to the morning mix. Linda Orkin Ithaca NY --

[cayugabirds-l] Blackbirds, all kinds

We just had a mixed flock of over a hundred blackbirds, including red-winged blackbirds, grackles, cowbirds, and starlings. There were a few female cowbirds, and possibly some female red-winged, although probably more likely they were juvenile males. Couldn’t get a good look! Barbara, in

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Goose migration this morning

The South end of the park,where Lower Lake Rd meets Rt89, has good views of open water but the ice edge is still a bit far to the East. Good scope views of large numbers of ducks, geese, swans, gulls, eagles.. The water should get much closer the next couple of days. Sunny morning viewing

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Goose migration this morning

Does anyone know if there is open water at any viewing spots on Lower Lake Road or Cayuga Lake State Park? On Tue, Mar 9, 2021 at 8:52 AM Dave Nutter wrote: > Several strings & Vs of northbound Canadas, but no Snows seen from my > place yet. > > - - Dave Nutter > -- > *Cayugabirds-L List Info:*

[cayugabirds-l] Bald Eagle

Perched in top of beach cottonwood, so seen well from my kitchen. Eagle has about half & half white & black feathers evenly streaked on head & mostly yellow beak with a dark tip. For a couple seconds when first seen I thought “Osprey” because the dark head feathers seemed like a dark streak
