Thanks Dave. I was there briefly yesterday, looking for Lincoln's but didn't find any.

Also, one was seen at Palmer Woods on Campus on the 19th. Looks like now is the time to go out and find them.

I am curious as to when (and by whom) the Lincoln's Sparrows were found at the Freese Road gardens. Nothing has been reported to Cayugabirds, and I know that there are many local birders who follow the listserve and yet are not hooked up to rare or unusual bird alerts. I really miss the days when folks thought it important enough to report interesting sightings to Cayugabirds. Bob McGuire On Sep 23, 2013, at 11:40 AM, Jay McGowan wrote: Myers was pretty quiet this morning, as it has been for the last few mornings. Highlight today was a WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER that came flying in off the lake. I first noticed it because it was giving its high-pitched, squeaky calls. It circled the spit once but didn't land, then headed back out over the lake. Other birds included a male GREATER SCAUP heading south, and one migrant and one local Osprey. After Myers and Stewart didn't yield much yesterday morning, I walked around Hog Hole for a while. The only bird of note was a MARSH WREN that I flushed from the grass in the northwest corner. Today at the corner of Cherry Road and Snyder Road at the Ithaca Airport I found a flock of at least 10 EASTERN MEADOWLARKS. And finally, not sure if it has been posted yet, but LINCOLN'S SPARROWS are turning up lots of places this past week, including several sightings at the Freese Road gardens. Later migrants such as Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Hermit Thrush, Winter Wren, Palm Warbler, Yellow-rumped Warbler, and Rusty Blackbird have all been seen in the area within the past few days as well.
