[cayugabirds-l] Upcoming weather MNWR
With cold weather coming I think the huge bird numbers at the Savannah mucks and Knox-Marsellus will be coming to an end soon. Prediction for Sunday-Monday overnight is mid-20's but I'm more worried about the Mon-Tues overnight when it will hit mid-20s but with no recovery the next day, a pattern repeating for the following two overnights where it will hit mid-teens. Wind might help keep K-M open but this could be it for the mucks, at least temporarily.

[cayugabirds-l] 2 bald eagles stewart park
And not a whole lot more on this cold, windy day! I was down at Stewart Park this morning (11am) near the southeast corner of the lake, and an adult bald eagle flew in, leisurely, over the lake. Shortly after, a juvenile bald eagle flew in, and the adult started chasing the juvenile, but not aggressively. They seemed to be flying in synchronicity - swooping at the same time, and similar wingbeat timing. They flew over the willow where I was standing a couple of times, then back out to the lake. The adult flew at the juvenile with talons out, and I believe it gripped the young one just briefly - but my view was blocked by the juvenile. Then the chase quickened, the adult still in pursuit. Both flew off towards Renwick Woods, and separated at that point. Other birds in that corner of the lake - mallards close in, redheads and coots and mallards in mixed flock by East Shore Park, Canada geese, one lone cormorant which flew off during the eagle escapades, and a couple of gulls. Wind off the lake quite chilly. -liisa Liisa Mobley Sent from my iPhone -- 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/ --
