I have had a fox sparrow coming to my feeder area, occasionally, since
Christmas. Such a beautiful bird.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Fox sparrow

2017-02-16 Thread Dave Nutter
As far as I know, Yvonne, yours is the first 2017 Fox Sparrow found in the 
Cayuga Lake Basin. 
Another species which migrates early was also first reported today: a Golden 
Eagle seen by Tim Lenz northbound over the Lab of O. 
Happy sort-of-Spring!

[cayugabirds-l] enterprising Juncos

2017-02-16 Thread cl...@juno.com
This afternoon there were several juncos at our feeding station. Despite 
multiple other offerings, 3 of them flew up to a side porch railing and began 
attempting to use a Niger seed sock. Not being able to hang from it and pull 
out the seed, they perfected a different method. They took turns standing on a 
block of wood on the railing, so they were about 8" below the sock, then they 
jumped up and butted the sock with their head. This dislodged 2 or 3 seeds at a 
time which they gobbled up! Everything is quiet out there now but this behavior 
lasted for about 20 minutes.Colleen Richards

[cayugabirds-l] yard birds

2017-02-16 Thread Bard Prentiss
Hi Alll,
This morning I was visited by two quite special, to me, yard birds.  First a 
Brown Creeper appeared in a the tree near my feeders. it stayed in the yard for 
about 10 minutes. An hour or so later a Carolina Wren showed up.  It only 
stayed for a minute or so and didn't visit the suet feeders which were in use 
by E. Starlings. I'm hopeful it will return soon.

Best,
Bard

[cayugabirds-l] Fox sparrow

2017-02-16 Thread Yvonne Fogarty

Hi all, 
We have a fox sparrow at our bird feeder today. It is hanging out with the 
white throated sparrows. Has anyone else seen then? I don't usually see them 
til spring.
