note, though, including:
Green-winged Teal (pair)
Killdeer
Eastern Meadowlark (This bird flew in low from the lake and came in
directly above us giving

billed grebe. I did not get the teal or meadowlark. Red throated loon still
present from east shore park. Could not relocate western grebe.

I just returned from a couple of hours atop Mt Pleasant. A pleasant
day, but rather slow for migration. A couple hundred Canada Geese and
many hundreds of blackbirds. One Killdeer flying over. 7 migrating Red-
tailed Hawks, three locals. A pair of Cooper's Hawks. One local
Northern Goshawk
Very large raft spreads about 1 mile from twin oaks campground north past rr

box on Simsbury Drive in northeast Ithaca. Although I hadn't seen any

the NORTHERN SHRIKE for 2012. I had this guy way back in November.
From my photos in November vs. today's, it could be the same

I spent some time after lunch today in the field across from our house,
watching to see what might go by. At 1330, I noted two dark birds flying
side-by-side, about 3 feet apart, emerging from over the trees to the east.
They continued in this fashion straight to the west and out of sight, about
