[cayugabirds-l] Ruff, Montezuma NWR

The highlight of this morning's walk on the dikes around Knox-Marsellus Marsh at Montezuma NWR was a female-type RUFF that I picked out along the grassy north edge of Knox-Marsellus. It gave good views and was still present as we walked back around 11, probably decently viewable from East Road in

[cayugabirds-l] Ruff at Montezuma NWR yesterday

Hi All, Last night, Tim Lenz, Bob McGuire, and I saw the RUFF that has been seen in the Montezuma area since Dave Nutter discovered it on Saturday, July 8. Like Dave, we saw the bird briefly at dusk at Eaton Marsh on the Montezuma NWR auto-loop. We had looked for the bird here and at Kips

No ruff 6pm, but 3 close least bittern sightings Larue -- two seen at the same time, and pretty sure the 3rd look was a third bird. Adults. Linda T On Sun, Jul 16, 2017 at 4:07 PM, Kenneth V. Rosenberg wrote: > I looked at Eaton around noon and at Kipps around 2 pm. Few birds

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Ruff updates?

I looked at Eaton around noon and at Kipps around 2 pm. Few birds and lots of heat waves, but doesn't mean it's not back in the corn stubble somewhere. Ken Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 16, 2017, at 12:43 PM, Matthew Medler wrote: > > Has anybody seen (or looked for) the

I think it's also possible to go one-on-one with someone through GroupMe. Thus one could direct a question back to the reporter alone rather than a broadcast message. Not sure how many people know this is possible. Dave Wheeler On Jul 11, 2017 11:01 PM, "Dave Nutter" wrote:

You *don't need a smartphone* to look at ebird. A computer with internet access is all you need. You don't even need an ebird account. Just gotoebird.org and click "explore data" and then you have a choice "explore a region" "explore hotspots" or "species maps." There are multiple ways

If you use ebird, they have maps and locations in a format that you can zoom in so far to see exactly where the bird of interest is. I never even heard of Kipps Island before but I found the hotspot on ebird and it was very easy to find. Often, if a bird is not seen in a hotspot, a "stakeout"
