[cayugabirds-l] Carolina wrens and D-E Juncos

What a flurry of activity in my backyard ( Meadowlark Dr. near Sapsucker woods) the last week. A pair of juncos are building a nest on my deck and a pair of Carolina wrens apparently are building one way back in the yard. Beaks full of grasses, etc. I've never heard so many different songs and

Re: [cayugabirds-l] ebird reporting question re: motion activated photos

Interesting. Three weeks ago I received a "question" from ebird asking me if I had "additional information" about a siting I had in Seattle in *2014!* I wonder what took them so long to question my bird....strange. Therese O'Connor On Tue, May 12, 2020 at 5:35 PM Deborah G Lau

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Of Unleashed Dogs and Waterthrushes

Meredith, Thank you for you dog "notes". I have seen many dogs in Sapsucker woods of late, where the signs clearly state "no dogs". In this case, even if the dogs are leashed, they shouldn't be there. The unleashed dog issue has gotten worse in the past year or so based on my own walking

For what it's worth, at Mill Pond in Aurora/Union Springs today, we saw, among the 20 or so Red Head Ducks, about 12 American Wigeons. We asked the Audubon Center guy, Chris, who said, "yes they are still around much longer than usual". There were also Mallards and Hooded Mergansers. Therese &

Tonight we witnessed a 3-way Yellow bellied Sapsucker fight which may have been territorial. Three sapsuckers landed on a telephone pole on Meadowlark Rd just across the road where we were sitting on the stoop. A great screeching and squaking fight ensued with three in a fight and two coming out
