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

2010-01-30 Thread bilbaker
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

2010-01-30 Thread Meena Haribal


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

2010-01-30 Thread Kathy Strickland

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. No Screech Owl. -Kathy Strickland
