[cayugabirds-l] Spotting scope

2023-04-08 Thread James Gaffney
I’m in the market for a new spotting scope. I was trying to find the most 
recent review in all about birds. Any suggestions?  Price range 1000$ or less. 
Thanks 
Jim

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Broad-winged Hawks

2023-04-08 Thread anneb . clark
No Broadwing but this morning I heard a low rough purring sound and looked out 
to see a Redtail leaving the field, then moments later a Raven settling on what 
I presume had been hawk prey.  It was mammal I think, and fairly good size (med 
bunny? Rat?)   ThebRaven was doing the purring. After a few min turning it, the 
Raven flew off to the SSE (to where? Somewhere down Ed Hill Rd?) and the 
Redtail returned to the spot. Apparently the Raven took whatever it was; after 
a few moments of walking around the spot, the Redtail flew to a tree, 
empty-footed. Pretty sure it was the male. Am only seeing one hawk now; she is 
presumably on eggs.

[cayugabirds-l] Broad-winged Hawks

2023-04-08 Thread Geo Kloppel
Two Broad-winged Hawks are soaring low over my West Danby hillside in the 
mid-day sunshine. The Ravens, who have gone quiet and seem to have nestlings 
now, are not pleased with these new arrivals, and one of them is attempting to 
drive the hawks away. He has the size advantage, and he’s very serious!
