Re:[cayugabirds-l] (Downy) Woodpecker Drumming
There was a Black-capped Chickadee singing his sweet fee-bee song this morning from the conifers in my front yard.

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Evening Grosbeak
While I have been in and out this AM, and could have easily missed it, I have not seen the Evening Grosbeak again today. Yesterday it did show up again in the early afternoon.

[cayugabirds-l] Carolina Wren
Yesterday while I was waiting for the bus I heard a cheery chirp of our neighborhood little fellow (Carolina Wren) in spite of temp being in single digit. He entertained me while I was waiting for a short time while waiting for the bus, may be just about two minutes.. Somewhere nearby there was also a House Finch singing. I am also awed by the squirrels who never seem to be tired or bored of cold temperatures. They always seem to be cheerfully hopping around and digging for the cached nuts, except occasionally when they are chasing each other. Also while waiting for the bus, I saw the Red Squirrel from my yard showing an intention of wanting to go across the road and there was continuous traffic, so in my mind, I was begging him not to cross. He stopped for a few seconds at the entrance of the driveway looking this way and that and then also decided it was no safe to cross the road and he crossed the driveway and went into yews. I was relieved that he was safe, but only to find a few seconds later he is crossing the road! But a very smart guy, he had climbed up the electric pole in the yard and was crossing overhead on the electrical wires! I felt stupid that I thought him to be dumb =-O Today morning I have heard Tufted Titmouse, Blue Jays and Crows calling. I feel while I am listening to music, I have been hearing something else singing, may be a Robin, or may it is just my brain that has been tricking me .

[cayugabirds-l] Union Springs pond
Another check at the factory pond in Union Springs about 4:30 this evening yielded the large continguency of Canada Geese that has been there for several days as well as a few Mallards and Redheads, and this time I picked out several American Wigeons as well. They may have been there all along but I'd not taken the time to look that closely. Another carload of birders was checking things out when I pulled up, but I don't know who. Maybe they found something I missed.
