[cayugabirds-l] Ovid shrike sp.
All, Yesterday morning a Northern Shrike was reported along Rt. 96 just east of Ovid. It is getting extremely late for Northern, so the possibility of Loggerhead is distinct. The observer, Brian Tuttle, reports that while he is sure it was a shrike, he would not have been able to rule out Loggerhead. Here is a link to the list, the location of which Brian says should be fairly accurate: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S23005214 If anyone out that way is able to follow up on this report, I would be most curious to hear the results.

[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant pm Wilson's Snipe
Hi all, A chilly walk up Mt Pleasant Rd around 3:30 pm turned up a Wilson's Snipe foraging in a muddy puddle just into one of the fields at the east end of the road. First I've seen this year. And several Savannah Sparrows, which have been back a week or so.

[cayugabirds-l] No Loons at Mud Lock
I was at Montezuma so I checked for the raft of Loons reported at Mud Lock. There were no Loons when I arrived around 4pm. I also checked behind the village offices in Cayuga with no luck. I found 1 Horned Grebe and 1 Pied Bill Grebe and a single Redhead at Mud Lock. It was quiet around Montezuma today. I did have 5 Dunlin in the corn stubble on Carncross Rd. with 18 possibly more Greater Yellowlegs. Wood Ducks seemed to be everywhere. On the East Rd. I observed a pair of woodies fly out of a tree and join a Sandhill Crane feeding in the corn field. What a strange trio they made with the Woodies feeding under the Crane. VanDyne Spoor Rd. had good numbers of waterfowl with N. Pintail being the most prevalent.Good Birding, Janet Akin -- 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/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Loons, no. Cormorants, yes at Mud Lock
John I went to Frontenac Park about 1 p.m. today. I counted 17 cormorants just south of the island no fewer than 20 more /within sight/ south towards Carr's Cove. John had seen more fly that way as I counted the ones at the island they no doubt were hidden behind the point. I came home deliberately to get my scope to be sure they were cormorants not loons. The slight uplift of the bills, heads held well out of the water the fact that they were so close together indicated to me that they were cormorants. With the scope seeing the color of their bills I confirmed that they were not loons. Becky I went north, leaving her place about 2:45 p.m., to check on count osprey nests. An exceptionally large flock of cormorants, which she estimated to be at least 100, lifted from the lake in the area south of Harris Park in Cayuga flew north. We didn't watch to see where they went. Last Fri., 17th, at the Lock, I saw one lone loon floating about 200 yards from the actual dam. It was the ONLY bird in the area that day except for an eagle on the nest.
