[cayugabirds-l] radar this evening: migration v rain

2016-04-30 Thread Dave Nutter
There's some migration going on, but there's also rain moving in from the west 
in an arc which stretches south of us. Will the rain cause a fallout here, or 
will it cut off the supply of migrants from the south beforehand? Tomorrow 
morning may be interesting, or it may just be wet.

[cayugabirds-l] Merlin nest - City Cemetery

2016-04-30 Thread John Confer
There is an incubating Merlin in the City Cemetery. From east to west, it is in 
about the middle. From north to south it is in the northern half. It is in the 
more northern of a pair of very tall White Pine. Neither the nest, nor the 
frequently used plucking post in adjacent, tall spruce can be seen from 
underneath the tree. They are visible as far as I can tell only from the 
northern side of the cemetery. Incubation began yesterday or the day before, 
and if successful the eggs should hatch in 26-28 days.


Any observations sent to con...@ithaca.edu would be appreciated.
