[cayugabirds-l] Ravens

Also yesterday PM, a pair of croaking Ravens treated me to a fun flight display over the front yard. & this morning ‘my’ usual 3 A. Crows are joining the many Blue Jays eating bird food & other goodies in back yard. Nice to have these Corvids! I hope they hang around for Great Backyard Bird

A Raven pair is pretty evident lately around the traditional nesting area in the hemlocks on the steep northern slope of 1,920’ “Sorry Hunter Hill” (not so named on any maps), West Danby. Right now they’re talking: one giving a “krawk krawk krawk” and the other deep and resonant “gronk” calls

Just now, out doing chores at our place in Mecklenburg, I watched 13 ravens drift south in a loose kettle. They were vocalizing, and doing some lazy acrobatics, but mostly just spiraling southward. We have a resident family group--and because we have a bakery on the property, with a delicious

Today, as the June mowing of the last few days was smelling good, but causing confusion among the previously nesting Red-winged Blackbirds and Bobolinks, a group of Ravens parked themselves on fields next to my house. I suspect this is the same group as flew through earlier in the week—there

[cayugabirds-l] Ravens getting ready!

Hi all, Yesterday I hiked about 4 mile loop of Bob Cameroon loop in the afternoon with Cayuga Trails Club. Only bird on the hike was one Chickadee. Of course I do not spish or use playbacks. As we were leaving Tower station on Tower road there was a crisp shiny Raven circling and calling.

Hi all For this past week we have been seeing up to four ravens at a time flying over our house on Hunt Hill Road, Dryden. This morning there has been one adult flying back-and-forth and the sounds of a fledgling in the distance over the trees. The adults flying over are always accompanied by

My local Ravens have not yet fledged, though they may be hopping around on the dense hemlock branches (I couldn't see young in the nest, but the parents are still defending the immediate area). Cypripedium acaule is now in flower there! -Geo Kloppel, West Danby -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:

On an otherwise unbirdy morning, three RAVENS flew over our field on their way from Taughannock gorge to Frontenac gorge. Within minutes we were notified that a courageous friend had passed on in the early hours of the morning. This is going to be an exceptional day. Carpe diem. Bill

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Ravens over Ithaca

In my (new) neck of the woods on S Danby Rd, ravens are an almost daily sighting, either at home or on the way down the hill to 96. It is wonderful to have them around after so many years without them until just a few years ago. On Thu, May 15, 2014 at 8:43 PM, Paul Anderson p...@grammatech.com

Yesterday I finished Berndt Heinrich's Mind of the Raven, which I can highly recommend. Today at about 6pm waiting at the stop light at the Dey St. exit from Rt 13, two Ravens flew over in the direction of the farmer's market. One was being harassed by a blackbird. Happy birding... -- Paul

[cayugabirds-l] Ravens - group courtship behavior

After the snow stopped this afternoon, I set up my scope to do a little driveway birding.  I noticed some dark specks over Buffalo Hill;  these showed to be 3 pairs of RAVENS, each pair flying wingtip-to-wingtip as mated pairs often do during courtship.  All 3 pairs were in a kettle, circling

Hi everyone, I've also been enjoying the East Hill ravens, although I haven't seen any young ones so far. I live just up from the upper trail going into Six Mile Creek, on Giles St. Sometimes a raven will fly out from the woods, over Giles St, and over the neighboring yards. Generally what

Subject: [cayugabirds-l] ravens Where there are usually two ravens in the neighborhood, this morning at 6:30 a.m. there were 7 flying overhead, with at least two vocalizing. I wonder if this could be both parents and new fledglings already? Michele Ovid / Interlaken -- Cayugabirds-L List Info

Re: [cayugabirds-l] ravens

I think May 17th is an early but possible date for Raven fledglings. If you're around the area frequently, their loud begging calls should give them away. In fact they get pretty darned loud even before they leave the nest. You can often hear Raven nestlings from several thousand feet away.

I have been surprised to see a Common Raven a couple times this spring along major roads between Ovid and Seneca Falls, which I hadn't figured on being their habitat, (but neither did I think Pine Tree Road in Ithaca was). I also saw a possible Northern Goshawk thereabouts, but perhaps it was

[cayugabirds-l] Ravens

Our Ravens have been absent all winter. It is well into the courtship and nesting season for them, so we had just about given up on having them as neighbors this year. They mate for life, so we were ready to assume one of our resident pair had perished and the other had dispersed. That changed
