[cayugabirds-l] Re: [cayugabirds-l] 5 Ross’s Geese at Stewart Park

2017-12-24 Thread Suan Hsi Yong
A good number of people enjoyed at Stewart Park not just the 5 Ross's
Geese, but also two Snow Geese, six Greater White-Fronted Geese (not
a-layin'), two Iceland Gulls, at least two Lesser-Black-Backed Gulls, some
fly-by Northern Pintails, and a distant Red-Throated Loon. Pretty neat
afternoon. A subset of photos are posted here:

There was one American Pipit at salt point, flew off when I wasn't looking.

Also a northern mockingbird by the parking lot.

[cayugabirds-l] 5 Ross’s Geese at Stewart Park

2017-12-24 Thread Dave Nutter
I was just at Stewart Park briefly 1:20pm and saw 5 adult white Ross’s Geese 
together and close among the Canadas just off the tennis courts. Going back 
with better camera set up now.

[cayugabirds-l] Glaucous Gull, Red-throated Loon

2017-12-24 Thread Dave Nutter
This morning from the lakeshore of Allan H Treman State Marine Park I saw a 
juvenile RED-THROATED LOON on Cayuga Lake somewhere between the piling cluster 
and East Shore Park or a bit farther north. 
On the red lighthouse breakwater a juvenile GLAUCOUS GULL was resting along the 
east edge near the second light post from the south. It appeared rather dusky 
gray on the back, rump, tail, and undertail coverts, but cream above with a 
fine pattern of light brown. The dark eye appears small and outlined in white. 
The wingtips are plain white. The bill is huge, straight, and pink with a black 
tip. The bird is far larger than the nearby Herring Gulls, but it may be 
inconspicuous tucked down in a dip in the similar colored concrete of the 
breakwater.
Duck diversity was a bit down.
