[cayugabirds-l] Montezuma Today

[bob mcguire]

Diane, Ken, and I took part in the Montezuma waterfowl count this morning. Our 
territory was Knox-Marsellus and Puddlers Marsh. Both areas were entirely 
ice-free and harbored a large number of birds. Several thousand Snow Geese took 
off from K-M as we arrived and flew north into the Mucklands. What remained was 
a good selection: Mallards and Black Ducks, Northern Pintail, Green-winged Teal 
and Northern Shovelers, Gadwall, American Wigeon and a single EURASIAN WIGEON. 
Also a dozen Tundra Swans, two Hooded Mergansers and a single Wood Duck. 

None of the counters reported Sandhill Cranes. One of them had a single Common 
Loon at Kip’s Marsh.

On the way home we noted hundreds (if not thousands) of Tundra Swans in the 
water north of the RR tracks - and a huge flock of diving ducks at the north 
end of the lake, out from Harris Park in the Village of Cayuga.

[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant birds...

[Marie P. Read]

As others have noted, lotsa geese going over right now (and have been all 
morning)

Also on Mt Pleasant:

Killdeer 
Horned Lark (one singing briefly plus a flock of about 25 flying around)
Red-winged Blackbird

Another Red-winged Blackbird is already noisily claiming part of the beaver 
marsh behind my property.
And a pair of Pileated Woodpeckers has been enjoying the suet for a couple of 
weeks. (The female's been around all winter)

Sounds a bit like spring out there.

[cayugabirds-l] Field Trip this Sunday

[Suan Yong]

This Sunday I'll be leading a Cayuga Bird Club field trip up the lake. We'll 
meet 8am in the Lab of O parking lot, and plan to return by 4 or 5. Don't be 
fooled by this week's 60's temps: winter will be returning Sunday (30's and 
moderately windy), so dress warm. We'll make pit stops along the way for food 
and warmth.

As of now, the plan is to see if any of the snowy owls are still around 
(starting with the one on Indian Field Road), and see if the snow geese are 
gathering at the mucklands. We may also look for the gyrfalcon, depending on 
interest and time.
