Last night there was decent (for early spring) bird echoes on the radar. That's 2 days in a row now. We have had several new arrival species down here in the Binghamton area as well. Eastern Phoebe, Bonaparte's Gulls, Tree Swallows, lots of Rusty Blackbirds, yellow-rumped warblers all have arrived last couple days. Plus American Robins and Red-winged blackbirds are pretty much everywhere and in flocks. I expect our first Osprey any time now....

I didn't find it, but I did have a fine consolation prize: An OSPREY flew over me when I was near the lighthouse, last seen powering north over the eastern shore of Cayuga Lake. As far as I know this is the first report in the Cayuga Lake Basin this year.--Dave Nutter-- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics Rules and Information Subscribe, Configuration and Leave Archives: The Mail Archive Surfbirds BirdingOnThe.Net Please submit your observations to eBird! -- -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics Rules and Information Subscribe, Configuration and Leave Archives: The Mail Archive Surfbirds BirdingOnThe.Net Please submit your observations to eBird! -- -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
