Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese, Halseyville Rd

[Nancy Tonachel Gabriel]

East side, between Mekeel and Swamp College Rds, a few dozen I’d say landing 
and feeding in a field (winter grain?) that’s beginning to green up.

And yesterday, I saw a flock of hundreds heading southeast over Sheffield Road.

Today, I saw a flock of a few hundred over Sheffield Road and heading southwest.

It has been an interesting day for geese.  Had a flock (I assume the same one) 
fly over our house in Lansing about 5 times this morning.   Wondering if they 
were trying to go to Myers area and deciding against it but couldn't find 
anything they liked off the lake.

Had a couple hundred snow geese and a couple separate flocks of Canadas near 
Trumansburg.  Snow Geese headed north and Canada flocks headed south. The first 
flock of Canadas were still jostling for position as they flew over.

There have been steady flocks of snow geese moving around overhead here
above Maplewood Pt (Duboise Rd). I can only hear them with the low
cloud/snow. Hundreds to thousands I would guess.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese

[Deb Grantham]

On Thursday, I saw a flock of several thousand snow geese, circled over Iradell 
Road, Trumansburg a couple of times before heading off north.

On Friday, from my place on Sheffield Road, Ithaca (west of Ithaca, 
Ithaca/Enfield townline), I saw several hundreds rise up just above the tree 
line to the east so I assume they were on the lake and flew up and then flew 
down out of sight.

And yesterday, I saw a flock of hundreds heading southeast over Sheffield Road.

Today, I saw a flock of a few hundred over Sheffield Road and heading southwest.

[Misao Johnson]

Suan,

Thank you so much for sharing the video!  So fascinating to see an aerial
view of the huge raft
of the snow geese.  I've never seen such a spectacular sight!

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

[Karen Edelstein]

I just flew out of Syracuse through Philadelphia, and passed over the tops
of Skaneateles, Owasco, and Cayuga Lakes. There were rafts of snow geese in
the middles of Owasco and Skaneateles Lakes.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Wes Blauvelt]

Yesterday evening I had a count of +7,000 SNGO just west of the refuge at
sunset.  Many settled into a corn stubble field near me only to erupt into
a cacophony of sound and panicked flight following a volley of gunshots.

I saw a field full of Snow Geese, thousands, this morning about 9:15 on Rt 34 
just south of Aurora near Fleming.

I had a larger raft on the water north of Taughannock this morning plus a
large flyover flock heading north.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Suan Yong]

I was just at Aurora where I could barely make out a "small" (~1-2k?) island of 
snow geese in the distance, slightly south of due west. I suspect this is one 
of the islands Geo saw from the other side, and I believe it is located in the 
middle of the lake at the widest point of the lake, pretty much as far away 
from shore than they can get. This has been a popular spot to raft in past 
years, distantly visible from Dean's Cove against the backdrop of Aurora's 
pretty buildings, where they look to be closer to the east shore when in fact 
they probably aren't.

Did not encounter any bigger flocks, just a few small high flyover groups. 
Visitor Center pool was thinly frozen over and hosting Canada geese, pintails, 
and green-winged teals, with three Sandhill Cranes joined by three others for a 
bit before three departed. It was fun watching them all negotiate the ice, with 
some nice long slidey landings by pintails. We'll see if any of my videos turn 
out watchable.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Alyssa Johnson]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been out in the Complex the last 2 afternoons. Most of the marshes, 
including the muck flats along 31 are frozen still. I found a large flock 
(approximately 100,000) on Gravel Road behind the Tyre Municipality Building 
yesterday about 5 pm. Carncross Road was good for swans (several hundred likely 
mostly Tundra based on what I was hearing), and thousands of ducks including 
Northern Pintail, Mallard, American Black Ducks, American Wigeon… maybe more. 
On the south side of the road, a lot of that closest field was open. I could 
see beyond there must have been holes in the ice here and there where the birds 
were concentrating, but most of it is not easy to view because of distance and 
vegetation. I didn’t get to Morgan Rd, but I’m guessing the units between the 
parking lot and river are mostly frozen still. That’s been a good spot in years 
past for eagles on the ice and divers. I also didn’t make it to VanDyne Spoor 
Rd, but guessing similar conditions. 

To anyone who isn’t familiar with Carncross and VanDyne Spoor Roads, they are 
seasonally maintained. So the last 2 days they were a little slushy and muddy 
but I made it fine. After tonight/tomorrow, I wouldn’t risk it personally. When 
I worked at Montezuma, occasionally I’d answer a call of “help! come save me” 
and all I could do was suggest Reed’s Towing. 

I am about to drive the entire west side of Cayuga to see if I can find the 
snow goose ice burg I expect is floating out there. If the marshes stay frozen, 
the geese will likely continue to stage in “smaller” groups in ag fields and on 
the lake then move on. But if the marshes melt, especially along Route 31, I 
bet they will dump in there and stage in numbers north of 500k. Last year it 
was estimated at the muck flats, at one time, 600-800,000 snow geese, 3000 
tundras, and tens of thousands of ducks!

Final thought- if anyone is interested in a guided tour, I just started working 
through Airbnb as an “Experience Host”!  I don’t want to overstep and self 
promote too much here, but if you email me privately, I’d be happy to share 
more information about how that works and my availability.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

Hi Sandy,

There are some big rafts of Snow Geese in Aurora Bay,  SE of Dean’s Cove. Can’t 
see any at Cayuga Lake State Park where I’m now walking with my dog…

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese flying

[Todd Beeton]

I saw hundreds (if not more?) flying North yesterday afternoon, visible
driving east toward Geneva on 5 and 20. It was an amazing sight. It was
late in the afternoon, just before sundown.

Thousands upon thousands of Snow Geese are flying high over head currently in 
Geneva. I can barely make them out as a i’m losing light and it’s snowing, but 
I can definitely hear them. It seems like many have stuck around this year! 
Hopefully the March migration is as fantastic as always.

RE:[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[Deb Grantham]

A smallish V of snow geese were flying high above and parallel to Sheffield 
Road, Ithaca/Enfield town line, at about 9:30 am today. There may have been a 
couple dozen birds. Heading south, of course.

A very large and messy formation of geese flew overhead yesterday evening, just 
light enough to see them. Looked like Canada geese but light was bad and they 
were high. Heading south. Vees within Vees and messy. Could have been a couple 
hundred.

Caught a glimpse of what I think was a Cooper’s hawk heading from my pasture on 
Sheffield Road into the hedgerow about 1:30 today.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese raft

[Deb Grantham]

About 4:45 pm from west side of lake near Cayuga Lake State Park: many snow 
geese, some in a smallish raft, some flying south but low along the lake.

Also several dozen swans nearer the shore and scattered long a stretch of about 
¾ mile. Not sure what kind, was getting too dark.

Two great blue herons.

Lots of small water fowl that I think were coots but am not at all sure.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese - A Huge Problem

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Hi everyone,

Here is a great article from Ducks Unlimited: 
https://www.ducks.org/conservation/national/light-goose-dilemma

There can be a great impact on the public when we get to experience things like 
the annual spring Snow Goose migration through the Finger Lakes, because it is 
amazing! Whenever I work with a tour group or give a presentation, I include 
this sort of information about the degradation of the arctic breeding grounds. 
The spectacle of seeing the geese can open up conversations about climate 
change, carrying capacity, and relative perspectives. We love them, but they're 
here for such a short amount of time I think we can all agree on the 
general feeling toward Canada Geese: messy, mean, ew, too many, pests, etc. Do 
we value Snow Geese more because they're graceful white birds similar to swans? 
And, because they're not here long enough to annoy us and degrade crops?

I always talk a lot about Mute Swans and European Starlings in these kinds of 
conversations. Ecologically, both species are similar in the damages they cause 
to native breeding birds, but we all know that many people LOVE Mute Swans and 
detest Starlings. Why? Big, white, graceful bird who is mostly out of sight and 
out of mind in a wetland somewhere when attacking and killing native birds? The 
carnage isn't as always in your face like we might see Starlings do. They'll 
come to our feeders by the dozens and many people see first-hand the damage 
they do because of nest boxes we check on,  thus are more apt to see the 
carnage. Anyway, there is a lot of psychology involved with wildlife management 
and public perception of wildlife and it's interesting to discuss.

Back to the article: "Light Goose" refers to Lesser and Greater Snow Geese, as 
well as Ross's Geese collectively (vs darker Canadas).

A few excerpts:

"Why have light goose numbers increased so dramatically over the past half 
century? In simple terms, the birds have benefited from the expansion of 
agriculture on their migration<http://www.ducks.org/hunting/migration> and 
wintering areas, which has provided them with an almost unlimited food supply. 
This has increased survival, allowing more young birds to reach breeding age 
and more adults to return to the breeding grounds in better condition, which 
has increased productivity.

Changes in land use have also altered the migration and wintering distribution 
of light geese. ... In recent decades, light geese have become more widely 
distributed as the birds have shifted to a diet largely consisting of waste 
grain and other agricultural foods during migration and winter. Lesser snow 
geese are now wintering farther north and over a much greater area than ever 
before, and Ross's geese have steadily expanded their range eastward over the 
past few decades."

"The effects of light goose overabundance were initially documented on breeding 
areas in the central and eastern Arctic and subarctic, but recent surveys 
indicate that population growth of lesser snow geese could also be occurring in 
the western Arctic at a similar pace. Although waterfowl managers believe 
existing breeding habitats can support light goose populations at current 
levels, the point at which continued population growth will exceed the capacity 
of the landscape to sustain the birds has yet to be determined. When 
traditional breeding habitats are degraded, light geese simply shift to 
different habitats or move to new areas where conditions are more favorable. No 
one knows how much potential breeding habitat exists in the Arctic and 
subarctic, or the proportion of current light goose breeding habitat that has 
been damaged or destroyed. In addition, more research is needed to determine 
light goose impacts on migration habitats during spring and fall."

"Defining a problem is not nearly as difficult as solving it, and so far the 
primary means of light goose population control has been through harvest 
management. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the Canadian 
Wildlife Service (CWS) have the shared responsibility of conserving waterfowl 
under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act in the United States and the Migratory 
Birds Convention Act in Canada. State and provincial wildlife agencies are also 
partners with significant management authority and operate within harvest 
frameworks established by federal agencies."

Hello, Can someone please explain how this population of Snow Geese we saw this 
year is out of the ordinary over the long haul. Have human beings somehow 
contributed to an overpopulation? Don't the populations always ebb and flow 
depending on many factors?  thanks for any input, Meredith

Greetings All,
For all of you who have been seeing the Snow Goose “breathtaking spectacle” 
throughout the Finger Lakes area and think it’s just the coolest thing you’ve 
ever seen – think again.
A number of years ago I attended a program at MNWR which focused on the 
out-of-control Snow Goose population and the devastating effect they are having 
the tundra where they breed. Bottom line is that Snow Geese are destroying the 
ultra-fragile tundra, which is made up of primarily of lichens which grow 
exceedingly slow. Snow Goose foraging behavior causes them to uproot the 
lichens entirely rather than nip them off above ground, which results in a 
Tundra desert.
I encourage everyone to Google: Trouble on the Tundra: Snow Geese Under The 
Gun, by Howard Schneider, 1997. If this was a major concern 25 years ago, 
imagine what the effect is today.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

[Donna Lee Scott]

Got ‘em! Thanks.

They were so close to West shore this time, that several came ashore & were 
eating grass on a small lawn south of Wolffy’s. Fun to see them so close by.

They (est. 40,000 by Suan Y. ) attracted quite a large # of hairless primate 
observers, too.
& a bit of a traffic jam.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese and sand hill cranes

[Donna Lee Scott]

No guarantee on seeing Snow geese tomorrow, but worth a try. They are often 
here today and gone tomorrow.

I looked for Sandhill cranes in sev. Montezuma Complex places & didn’t see any.
But others reported a few of them, days ago, so good to look around.

I did see lots of Canadas & lots of ducks.
Northern Pintails & Shovelers at MNWR visitors Ctr & other areas.

Large bunch Aythyas in middle of Cayuga L. North end off Lower Lake Rd. /Cay.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese on Cayuga Lake

[Geo Kloppel]

West Danby: Around 1:00 pm I saw a number of flocks of Snow Geese just 
entering the Cayuga Basin from the south. Not sure how extensive the flight 
was, but that mid-day timing always suggests a dawn origin in the coastal 
regions to our south. So, not entirely over yet!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese on Cayuga Lake

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Can confirm! No where near the numbers we had on 3/17 (conservatively 400,000), 
but there are two large rafts on the lake as of 5:20pm. One raft can be viewed 
from Cayuga Lake SP and the larger group viewed from Wolffy’s Grill & 
Marina/Lower Lake Rd.

The may be the last weekend to see them, I hope all who want to, get to!

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Check the east side of the lake between Cayuga and Union Springs. Some folks 
who came into the MAC told us they saw them across the lake from Cayuga Lake 
SP. I've also seen in a hunting group I'm in, that they've been seen in the air 
over Auburn. I'm not sure if they are leaving us yet, we already thought that 
once, and then BAM! St Patrick's Day we got lucky.

None (to my knowledge) have been seen on the ground in the Montezuma Wetlands 
Complex today. Possible there's some way out in the Main Pool at the refuge, 
but they're hard to see unless the take flight.

We are seeing big numbers of Northern Pintail right now, check out Sandhill 
Crane Unit on Van Dyne Spoor Road, the wetlands in front of DEC Office on 
Morgan Road, and May's Point off 89.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese and bald Eagles

[Nancy Cusumano]

They were all heading north as we were leaving, like half as many on the water 
as wine we arrived. Will the come back south again tomorrow, or keep goin? 
Anyone want to guess?

It was a truly amazing sight and sounds. The amount of birds in the air at any 
one time made it look like the sky was fluttering.

had definitely grown from when I saw it around 11:30 am.

Magical.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese...?

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Don't be fooled by the "snow geese" on the south side of Route 31, there is a 
large spread of decoys in front of a hunting blind there. Much of the land on 
either side of the road is privately owned (except for the eastern-most portion 
along the Seneca River, that's USFWS owned). There is also another spread of 
decoys between the split of 31/89 and East Road, on Route 89, northern side of 
the road. I've been tricked before!

After an enjoyable counting of bald eagles at Onondaga Lake this morning I 
drove across to Montezuma Wildlife Refuge. On Rt. 31 mucklands there were large 
numbers of snow geese on the south side of the road as well as many more 
landing further north but out of sight range.

At Carncross Rd. there were many Canada geese and some ducks on the front 
waters, but many snow geese were behind them on other open water stretches.

Hopefully they will be in closer viewing range in the coming days.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

I saw several very large flocks of Snow Geese on CR 4 between Geneva and 
Canadaigua today.  This afternoon a flock of at least 150 thousand was on the 
corner of Gates Rd and CR 4.  As a biologist who studies passerine migration, I 
find Snow Geese migration to be an awe inspiring spectacle.  Simply amazing.  I 
can’t imagine what these flocks look like as they converge onto their breeding 
grounds.

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese; Eurasian Green-winged Teal at Morgan Road.

[Jay McGowan]

Knox-Marsellus Marsh had 10,000+ Snow Geese this afternoon, and the
Mucklands hosted another flock of perhaps 6,000. EURASIAN WIGEON were
present both at Knox-Marsellus and Morgan Road in Savannah. The best bird
of the day was a EURASIAN GREEN-WINGED TEAL with the Green-winged Teal
flock at Morgan Road:

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[Dave Nutter]

Thanks for the report, Tom.  It’s true, no Snow Geese were reported on 1 
January within the Ithaca Christmas Count circle, nor so far as I know during 
the Count Week (3 days prior & 3 days after, which was 29 Dec 2018 - 4 Jan 
2019), so it looks like we missed them. 

A map of the Ithaca Christmas Bird Count can be found on the Cayuga Bird Club 
website. The 15-mile diameter circle is centered atop Mt Pleasant. Its northern 
extent covers parts of Pleasant Valley Rd in the Town of Groton. The count 
circle extends far enough north to include the Ithaca Yacht Club and more along 
the southwest shore of Cayuga Lake but not quite to Myers Point along the 
northeast shore of the lake. To the west the count circle includes part of 
Sheffield Rd on the Ithaca/Enfield town line. To the east it includes most of 
the Village of Dryden. To the south it barely includes the hamlet of Danby, and 
also includes Belle School Rd. I believe there is a more precise map somewhere 
which allows zooming in to determine exact boundaries. 

Any reports for those dates within the count circle would be most welcome 
regarding Snow Geese as well as lots of other species we missed. We are envious 
of the reports of those gorgeous birds from farther north! 

Meanwhile reports are also welcome anytime regarding new species for 2019 in 
the Cayuga Lake Basin (generally, lake drainage plus south-draining lands north 
of the Seneca River/Erie Canal), or reports of rarities anywhere near the 
basin, or just plain exciting bird finds or phenomena. 

Although we missed Snow Geese in the southern part of the Cayuga Lake Basin, 
there is a huge raft of them in the middle of Cayuga Lake in its widest part 
near Aurora. From NYS-89 on Thursday afternoon it was opposite the Beer Garden 
by Poplar Beach Rd. It looks like a white island, often with a mist cloud of 
white birds over it. Those geese typically commute to feed in farm fields in 
the northern part of the Cayuga Lake basin.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese Monday

[Donna Lee Scott]

By 6 PM the shore to shore group strung itself out more in the middle of the 
lake in a very long line. some are closer to the west shore as well.
Several vees have flown NW too.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese Monday

[khmo]

Two other large rafts further south. Interesting that very little was on
Seneca as we birded the west side and park at the North end. All the
usual hot spots were devoid of waterfowl.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[Candace Cornell]

I could not guess the number of geese out today off of Cayuga State Park,
as the gigantic rafts spread as far as I could see up and down the lake.
When I reported "tens of thousands" of geese, I would have said a million,
but for fear of exaggeration. Their collective noise at rest is impressive.

Eyes to the sky-the migration is on! The osprey will arrive starting March
29 +/-.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[bob mcguire]

Wasn’t that amazing???  We observed that extended flock - and another one 
farther south, opposite Aurora - this afternoon. We gave up trying to count 
(and looking for Ross’s Goose) and made a “questimate” of at least ONE MILLION. 
I wonder if anyone actually has a count?

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[Candace Cornell]

I saw thousands of, if not tens of thousands of, snow geese at 330 pm today
off Cayuga State Park on the northwest side of the lake.  A dozen or so
swans (sp?), swimming on the periphery of the rafts looked like they were
herding the geese. The gang was wonderfully loud.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

[Dave Nutter]

Today I drove from Ithaca to Montezuma NWR & back on the west side of Cayuga 
Lake. Notable Snow Goose sightings included: 

Around 11am flocks of hundreds in lines and vees over Covert flying east toward 
the lake. 

Around 5pm hundreds covering and grazing on the sheep pasture beside NYS-89 
between Schuyler Creek and the Varick-Fayette Townline Road. They were nibbling 
grass, not rooting in corn. 

Quite a few moderate-size rafts on Cayuga Lake fairly close to the west shore 
as I drove south in the evening. I did not notice the single giant raft in the 
middle of the lake which I consider typical.

I also recall that on 25 February, when Gary, Ann, & I went to Oswego to see 
the Clark's Grebe, we saw thousands of Snow Geese migrating north to, then 
northeast around Lake Ontario. I assume this was the exit of a big portion of 
the Cayuga Basin's first big wave of Snow Geese. I think we may have a 
different and smaller group now from a more recent wave.

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese 3

[Donna Lee Scott]

Hard to tell for sure, but it looks like some Snow Geese that flew west a hour 
or more ago, are returning to & landing in the large flock that remains on the 
lake.
This flock took flight a few times, flew a little to north, & landed again each 
time, so now they are in lake, west of, right across from, my abode at 535 
Lans. Stat. Rd.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese

[Marty Schlabach]

We had numerous small flocks fly over our house this morning.  Probably 20+ 
flocks of 50-100 birds, coming from the direction of Cayuga Lake and flying 
southwest.  Not sure where they were headed.

This evening about 5:30pm there was an enormous flock of snow geese on the 
ground in fields east of Co Rd 129 between Wycoff and Munson Rds in Ovid.   I 
would guess 20-30 acres (and perhaps more) just covered with snow geese.

I have seen that same flock of SNOW GEESE on Cayuga lake that Bill reported. 
Been there all day.
Yesterday I saw 4 blue SNOW GEESE looking for food in field at corner of 
Lansing Station Rd & Rt 34B, along with large flock (30 or so) of SNOW BUNTINGS 
with a few HORNED LARKS. First Snow Buntings for me this winter (not for lack 
of trying to find some!)

I have gone through a whole bag of bird seed this week feeding hundreds of 
birds at home.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese

[Donna Lee Scott]

I have seen that same flock of SNOW GEESE on Cayuga lake that Bill reported. 
Been there all day.
Yesterday I saw 4 blue SNOW GEESE looking for food in field at corner of 
Lansing Station Rd & Rt 34B, along with large flock (30 or so) of SNOW BUNTINGS 
with a few HORNED LARKS. First Snow Buntings for me this winter (not for lack 
of trying to find some!)

I have gone through a whole bag of bird seed this week feeding hundreds of 
birds at home.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese moving north

[Peter]

It's right around the corner.

On another note, has anyone seen the Gyrfalcon of late?

I've been down there about 12 times and have not seen it. I've found 
EVERYTHING but!! I found the fountain of youth, the lost city of 
Coronado, the lost Inca gold, even the Holy Grail.  But alas, no falcon

Enjoy the sunshine all. It's REAL medicine.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[tess]

At 8 am this morning, there were several thousand snow geese flying over 
and browsing in stubble in the northwest corner of Covert & 
south-central portion of the town of Ovid. All the flying geese were 
headed south, some funneling into the fields and the rest only 
moderately high up, looking like they more likely were headed for 
breakfast locally than a trip to Pennsylvania. Alicia

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese where abouts

[bob mcguire]

Last Wednesday there were several hundred Snow Geese in the cut-over corn field 
along Rt 31. North side of the road. West of the Potato Building. The field was 
still snow-covered and frozen, but I would expect there to be many more geese 
there by this weekend.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese overhead

[Meena Madhav Haribal]

After Anne Marie posted the following sighting, at about 4.45 PM, I saw flocks 
of three snow geese. May be they were the ones coming from Anne Marie's house.  
 Group of four had merged into three.

Just watched four Vs of Snow Geese overhead heading toward Ithaca,
beautiful against the blue sky. I thought I spotted a very small goose in
one of the flocks, but after getting the binocs, it turned out to be a blue
phase whose darker wings blended in with the sky. All the rest of the geese
were white.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese sightings?

[Donna Scott]

Thursday I saw many flying over Sapsucker Woods area about 2 PM. Then when I 
drove to Meadowridge Vet Clinic on rt. 34 in No. Lansing, I saw a large flock 
landing in a corn stubble field just north of Vet's office. 
So, driving around where there are old corn fields can offer good views of Snow 
Geese. I enjoy this 'cause I see other birds along the way. I usually work my 
way over to the lake after a drive in the countryside.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese on the move

[Bill Evans]

My understanding is that generally the longer the migration delay the more 
birds are ready to fly, so I agree with David that the potential exists for a 
huge waterfowl flight up from the mid-Atlantic if the weather sets up right. On 
the other hand, if weather is not suddenly conducive, we could see dribs and 
drab pushing northbound through semi-conducive conditions.

I remember the great raptor migration release after the winter of 92-93 thaw.  
We had the very tough blizzard in mid-March 93 and when the sun finally melted 
through the hefty snow deposit (~10 days later) there was a very impressive 
flight noted from Mount Pleasant.  Favorable migration weather began about 
March 23, but the big raptor pulse didn’t begin until the snow had largely 
melted on Mar 26th -- a substantial pulse then continued on most days through 
Apr 8th. During this period nearly 1500 raptors were tallied, and this didn’t 
include any Broad-wingeds. There were 31 Goldens, and symptomatic of that time 
only 3 Balds. Notable were 282 Red-shouldereds, including an impressive 109 on 
March 31st.  That latter day was amazing with over 400 raptors in passage. 
There were still remains of a huge snow drift on the south side of the 
observatory, but skies were sunny and the temp must have reached at least well 
into the 60s because I recall Cornell students Adam Byrne and Ned Brinkley had 
taken off their shirts and were pretty well sunburned by day’s end.  Ironman 
Bernie Guirey compiled the Mount P totals in those days, and for this period 
from Mar 26-Apr 8 (minus two days with unfavorable migration conditions) the Mt 
P watch site was covered for an average of 6 hours a day. Thanks to Tom Salo, 
the data was tracked down a few years ago and submitted to Hawkwatch.org, but I 
notice it’s not currently online – perhaps due do to the fact that start times 
were missing from the data. I will forward a copy of the historic data I have 
to the Cayuga Bird Club so that it might be posted on CBC website.

Tom prompted me awhile back to see if we could get coverage up at Mt P again. 
The Mt P hawk watch came together spontaneously back in the early 90s. Such an 
effort takes the favorable circumstances of one or more folks free to organize 
and enough others available to help out and fill in so that continuous coverage 
on at least the good and moderately good flight days is maintained. Any future 
efforts should follow the standardized counting format noted on hawkwatch.org

Needless to say for many of you, it appears the conditions have potential for 
some big raptor flight days in the next few weeks.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese flying south over Ithaca - hundreds. --...

[Geo Kloppel]

During the last hour, about 1,000 Canada and 300 Snow Geese flew over my head 
and out of the basin in what looked like determined southbound migration. The 
high hilltops (circa 1900 feet) seemed to scrape the cloud ceiling earlier, but 
perhaps it is lifting enough to embolden migrants...
