Marie, The access road was closed to vehicles (gated) but was plowed. I walked in from the parking lot at Caswell and Forest Home Dr. This stretch along the walnuts is also very good birding. Why would anyone want to get someplace quickly there? Steve

Steve, Was the Plantations access road open or did you walk in? Folks should be aware that the road is usually closed in winter, and even if snowless the road sometimes opens late on the weekends. A relatively short but steep way to get quickly to the crabapple collection (good place for frugivorous avians) is via the stairs on Forest Home Drive opposite the bridge area of flat rock.

Dave & other frantic listers, There was a small flock of CEDAR WAXWINGS along with about 50 ROBINS and 60 STARLINGS feeding on the orn. cherry berries along the big shrubby slope at the Cornell Plantations yesterday. This might be a good place to check; we've found Bohemians (the bird) there in past years.

As far as I know, no one refound the Bohemian Waxwing nor a waxwing flock in the vicinity Friday or Saturday. Please check all waxwings carefully for Bohemians. If you find a Bohemian, please call me 607-229-2158 or send a message to the CayugaRBA as well as posting promptly to the listserv. Thanks. --Dave Nutter On Jan 20, 2012, at 02:03 PM, Carl Steckler <[email protected]> wrote: Just after re-finding the Horned Larks and Longspurs on Elm St. Ext I went down Cemetery Ln. off of Salt Rd. and found a flock of Cedar Waxwings about 1/4 mile East of Salt Rd. I just finished looking at the photos on the computer and one of them is a Bohemian Waxwing. This time I am sure.
