Re: [cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe

[Jay McGowan]

Any photos yet? There have been up to a dozen Horned Grebes, many in
confusing transitional plumage, around the south end of Cayuga Lake the
last couple of days, so those should be ruled out when identifying an Eared.

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe on my pond...

[Gladys Birdsall]

This afternoon about 5:30 p.m., I walked the Yorkies, and we went down 
to the pond.  As we got there I saw a small bird on the water on the 
other side.  We all stopped to look and what jumped out at me was the 
yellowish ( in fan shape) feathers on the side of the head, and my first 
thought was Eared Grebe.  The bird sat still looking at us and us at 
it.  I did not have my binocs, and I just kept looking at the head, ( 
yes it looks fan shaped).  The bird was very dark overall.  I do not 
remember seeing color on the body.   Maybe 5 seconds passed and it flew 
off.  It did have white patches on the wings.  Looking in the Sibley 
book, the white patches on the upper wing match what I saw.    
(Secondaries, the trailing edge of the wing)

When the bird took off the yellowish feathers on the side of the head 
appeared to lay in a line across the side of the head.  I could not find 
online any photos of Eared Grebes in flight,( in breeding plumage).

We have seen tadpoles in our pond already this year so it may have had a 
meal.  It just took me by surprise, but the yellowish feathers on the 
side of the head really was the thing that jumped out at me.

I have seen breeding plumage Horned Grebes on Cayuga Lake. This 
encounter happened pretty fast.  I have had Wood Ducks on the pond and 
they take off as soon as they hear us coming, doing their high pitched 
whistle.

Gladys

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe, Myers Point

[Jay McGowan]

Bob McGuire just called to say he has an EARED GREBE off Ladoga at Myers
Point. I was there earlier this morning and didn't see this bird, but I did
have a basic adult RED-NECKED GREBE, reported yesterday by David Weber and
others, off the Myers marina this morning, as well as good waterfowl
diversity here and north of Salt Point.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe, Myers Point

[Susan Fast]

I was there and saw the eared.  Also found 2 RED-NECKED GREBES after Bob left.  
To me, the eared didn't look like the one at Aurora, so we met there later and 
found only HORNED GREBES off the Boathouse.  After a fine lunch at Dories, I 
headed down to Long Point SP and found the Aurora EARED GREBE there, all by 
itself.  The facial markings are somewhat different in the 2 eared grebes.

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe, Aurora

[Jay McGowan]

The EARED GREBE is visible now off the boathouse in Aurora. Lots of Horned
Grebes as well as a large Aythya flock off the point to the south with a
probable male scaup x Redhead hybrid.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] EARED GREBE, SW Cayuga Lake scoped from NW Treman ...

[Dave Nutter]

My walk to the lake garnered 48 species, including 15 HORNED GREBES (scattered far out on the lake as well as closer to ducks, 3 PIED-BILLED GREBES (near the docks and the distant EARED GREBE when I left), and 1 COMMON LOON. The next biggest surprise among the 16 species of waterfowl was a total of 83 SWANS between the white lighthouse jetty and Stewart Park, feeding and resting along the ice edge, and 80 of which were confirmed TUNDRAS. Only 3 of the swans raised ID questions, one which persistently hid its head, and 2 at the far SE corner of the lake whose wider eye-bill wedge I attributed to the mild heat shimmer, but worth a double-check from closer. Perhaps today's south winds will also make for good viewing. --Dave NutterOn Dec 19, 2013, at 01:12 PM, 6072292...@vtext.com wrote:EARED GREBE, SW Cayuga Lake scoped from NW Treman lakeshore. --Dave Nutter

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe, yes. Tufted Duck, no.

[nutter.dave]

I spent about an hour and a half at the southwest corner of Cayuga Lake this morning. The west side is sheltered, and now that the temperature has dropped again, and the wind is not from the land to the south, there was almost no heat distortion over the water. There were waves in the middle and east sides of the lake, and much of the south end is muddy from the rains and wind, but I think I did a pretty good job seeing what was out there (Then again, I thought the same when I left on Tuesday minutes before the alert about the Tufted Duck.). There were plenty of waterfowl, but perhaps not as many as the past couple days. One individual in particular, the obscure little Tufted Duck, seemed to be missing. Birds of note:Canada X domestic Greylag Goose hybrid - 1 with broad white band on sides (this is feathered, I was in error previously)Northern Pintail - 1 maleRedhead - 92 in a tight flock close by when I arrived. They left after awhile, and I saw smaller groups later (same? additional?)Canvasback 20 males in flight, not seen on the waterRing-necked Duck - a pair in the corner of the lake, a male near the mouth of the inletLesser Scaup - 18 maximum count in a single sweepBufflehead - 1 female seen 3 different placesCommon Goldeneye - plentyHooded Merganser - still large numbers far to north, some under docks and hard to countCommon Merganser - still large numbersRed-breasted Merganser - group of 3 females continues to the north in the middleRuddy Ducks - flock of 30+ continuesEARED GREBE - 1 far to north, not far from shoreDouble-crested Cormorant - 1Turkey Vulture - 1 over Cayuga HeightsBald Eagle - 1 adult circling high over southeast part of lakeRed-tailed Hawk - over Cayuga Heights--Dave Nutter

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe, Aurora

[Jay McGowan]

Andrew Van Norstrand and I are looking at a winter EARED GREBE with two
Horned Grebes out on Aurora Bay, seen from the Lake Road bluffs. Several
other groups of Horned Grebes are also in the area, but the Eared is
notably smaller and skinnier-necked with a dark neck and peaked head, quite
distinctive in the nice light and calm conditions we have right now.

A Killdeer on Salt Point was the highlight at Myers.

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe still present, but distant

[Nicholas Sly]

I scoped from the East end of Stewart Park for Tim's Eared Grebe from
11:15 to 11:45. The grebe was distant to the west: from my vantage
point it was between the red lighthouse and the large, tall marker
farther out on the lake. Over the course of the half hour it pushed
farther and farther northwest, until it was just a speck near the far
shore. If anyone is going for it now, maybe Hogs Hole would be a
better scoping spot. Hopefully it loops back in close.

Cheers,
Nick

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe

[tigger64]

If anyone gets photos of the bird, even really bad ones, I would appreciate it 
if they could post them.  I am curious about the plumage details and if they 
are similar to a grebe I saw on Monday on Onondaga Lake.  (presuming the 
Onondaga Lake bird has left -off to look right now).  Thanks!

Hi Dave,

I have some video here:

And a photo here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/pinicola/6483156077/in/photostream/

Both were taken through a scope with an iPhone and reflect that level
of quality. Still, better than nothing.

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe -- Stewart Park

[Christopher Wood]

Benjamin Freeman saw an Eared Grebe yesterday at Stewart Park. It was ca. 30
feet away from shore, near the small dock in the middle of Stewart Park,
swimming near three Redhead and bunches of Mallards.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe at Stewart Park - No sign

[Paul Anderson]

There was no sign of the Eared Grebe this morning from Stewart Park.

Among the other birds were two Northern Shovelers, about ten 
Green-winged Teal, a single Wigeon, and of course the other usual suspects.


An adult Bald Eagle flew in from the North and perched in the tree 
opposite the boat house. It had a red band on the left foot labeled P31 
and a white one on the right.

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe at Stewart Park

[Tim Lenz]

This evening there was a basic plumaged EARED GREBE swimming out near the
red lighthouse jetty visible from Stewart Park.  The most noticeable thing
about the bird was its very steep forehead and distinctly triangular head
shape, with the peak just above and perhaps slightly in front of the eye.
 The black on the crown extended downwards below and behind the eye,
wrapping around diffusely to the back of the neck.  Its back and flanks were
black, with little contrast.  The bill seemed rather short and thin, but it
was bit too far away to notice any other details.  It was swimming near a
Pied-billed Grebe at one point but later drifted away on its own towards the
pilings.  I was able to take some video using my phone through the scope,
which I will post to my flickr page tomorrow if it reveals anything useful.
 Hopefully the bird will stick around overnight.  This was my first Eared
Grebe for Tompkins County so I imagine it would be a new county bird for
many others as well.

Good birding

[cayugabirds-l] Eared Grebe in Aurora

[alm9413]

Around 2:45 P.M., I spotted an Eared Grebe from the north side of  the 
boathouse in Aurora. It was somewhere around 1/3rd the way out in the  lake. I 
first noticed 5 Horned Grebes further north and further out on the  lake. As 
I scanned, the Eared Grebe came into view. It was much closer  to shore, but 
I still needed to zoom in on it. It was actively  feeding, heading south. 
The dark head and shape of the forehead, white  ear patch, and dusky neck 
were easily identified.
Best, Ann Mitchell
