RE: [cayugabirds-l] Whimbrel, Ruddy Turnstones Genva

[Alyssa Johnson]

Castle Creek is right on the NW "corner" of Seneca. If you know where the 
Ramada is, just a short ways north of that. There's a great paved bike path to 
follow. I was just there 20 minutes ago, no sighting of whimbrels, but possibly 
2 ruddys taking flight from the end of the jetty with some gulls. They were 
spooked by people walking, and it's very windy with a southern wind right 
now... They didn't stick around long.

While I know where the park is, I don't know the landmarks you are talking 
about.  Is Castle Creek the creek coming into the lake on the east side?  On 
the map I see a tiny creek about in the middle, too.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Whimbrel, Ruddy Turnstones Genva

[Norwalk, James]

I support that idea!  Especially since the beach at Castle Creek is also 
slatted to be used as a launch for kite-boarders.

Just came from there. There were two Whimbrels at the end of the Castle Creek 
jetty, constantly being flushed by walkers. They would return, but in a very 
short while would be flushed again. These birds need a place to rest for 
extended periods, but just can't get it here. Looks like I'm going to have to

They were on the small beach near the new metal bridge over Castle Creek. They 
were flushed by dog walkers while Linda Mott and I were there but returned to

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Whimbrel, Ruddy Turnstones Genva

[Charlie Rouse]

Just came from there. There were two Whimbrels at the end of the Castle
Creek jetty, constantly being flushed by walkers. They would return, but in
a very short while would be flushed again. These birds need a place to rest
for extended periods, but just can't get it here. Looks like I'm going to
have to re-present my idea of "Sandpiper Island", an offshore refuge that is
inaccessible by humans. It got shot down by the city and state the first
time, 3-4 years ago, but I'm going to jump back in and take the issue as far
as I can.
