[cayugabirds-l] Down town Raven
Late this morning while I was stopped at the light at Clinton St and Rt. 13 a Raven flew over Rt 13 flying basically west to east. This is the first Raven I have seen in the down town area. Have I just been missing them? I am curious if others have seen Ravens actually in down town.

[cayugabirds-l] Falcon
A couple days ago, I thought I saw a falcon fly in front of me on Pleasant Grove Road heading west. I truely think it was a Peregrine. Keep an eye on Bradshaw Hall.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] BLACK VULTURE
Susan, I had a black vulture last week in Johnson City. There were also a few reported in spring/summer in the Ithaca area. This species apparently continues to spread northward. Neat. Dave From: Susan Danskin dans...@twcny.rr.com To: CAYUGABIRDS CAYUGABIRDS-L@cornell.edu Sent: Tue, January 25, 2011 7:16:17 PM Subject: [cayugabirds-l] BLACK VULTURE Sorry Sorry Sorry. I thought sent this info to the rare bird alert, but I must not know what am I doing. I had to rush to send off the text before my students came into the classroom and caught me with an illegal device. Who knows what I did wrong, but tonight when I finally had a chance to check my phone, I realized that the incoming text that I thought was the one I had sent actually was one telling me that BLACK is reserved. Someday I'll figure out what I did wrong. Anyway, on to the story of the bird... A couple of days ago I was driving up Rt 13 somewhere near Triphammer and noticed some birds soaring off to my left. At least one and possibly two had the jizz of a Black Vulture (shorter tail, shorter wings, less dihedral than Turkey Vulture). Given that the lighting was bad, I was late for work, and going at least 60 mph, I soon put it out of my mind as just a trick of my eyes. But then again today I was driving up Rt 13 between Triphammer and Warren and again noticed three birds circling off to my left. Again at least one of the birds definitely had the jizz of a Black Vulture. This time the lighting was better, I wasn't so late for work, and I had the sense to take my lead foot off of the accelerator AND the bird was kind enough to bank just at the right time to show me its white wing tips. I am usually the first to doubt myself when I see something rare, but I am confident of this ID. I grew up in the Hudson Valley and have made many trips south so I have some decent experience with this bird. Keep your eye aimed at the sky the next time you are flying up Rt 13 around 8:45 am.

[cayugabirds-l] Tundra Swans
There were four Tundra Swans at the edge of the ice, SW corner of Cayuga Lake, late in the afternoon. The usual number lately has been three. Didn't have a chance to count other waterfowl, but there were approximately 20 Great Black-backed Gulls and several hundred Canada Geese, also some Redheads but I didn't have a change to do a complete survey. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html 3) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
