Re: [cayugabirds-l] Imm northern goshawk

I think the reference is to an eBird research project in our area which gathers 
data by suggesting specific locations where birders should go based on 
habitats. The birders earn points by submitting eBird lists from various sites, 
then get a chance to win a prize based on the number of points earned. 
Unfortunately, the names of the places are only in code, with no reference to 
any place anyone else would recognize.

Joshua, what is this trailhead you mention? Not one of the FLNF names. FYI, at 
least
three pair of Gos breed in the forest, probably a couple more. One year, FLT 
hikers
were constantly bombarded as they passed under a nest near the lean-to. That 
nest no
longer in use. Although Gos and other accipiters are moving now, it gives hope 
that
we had a successful nesting.
Best,
john

[cayugabirds-l] Imm northern goshawk

2016-09-07 Thread Joshua Snodgrass
I just saw an immature northern goshawk on Mathews Rd in the finger lakes
NF, near the avitrail 27 trailhead. Large accipiter- initially mistaken for
a rtha given its perch in the open. But long tail with white terminal band
and a conspicuous eyebrow stripe lead me to believe goshawk. It flew into
the woods after briefly letting me look at it. Not sure if it is chaseable
