Yesterday (23 Jan) Reuben Stoltzfus found a Lapland Longspur among a flock of 80 Snow Buntings along Kings Corners Rd near McCulloch Rd in the Town of Varick. As far as I know, this is the first record of the species this year in the Cayuga Lake Basin.
Most of the records I use to compile the list are from eBird, which is available to the public. Some are from CayugaBirds-L, to which many local birders subscribe. But Reuben reported this directly to me, so I’m sharing it here. - - Dave Nutter -- 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/ --
