[cayugabirds-l] Ruffed grouse youngsters

2017-08-04 Thread Gladys Birdsall
Today we were delighted to see 5 Ruffed Grouse juveniles go across our 
backyard on Mt. Pleasant.   They ran/flew/scurried one by one across the 
open area.  From under our solar panels to the safety of the bushy area 
across the yard.Great to see they have been successful.  I hear the 
drumming every spring but this is the first time I have seen young.  I 
sometimes am lucky to see an adult Grouse in our driveway when I drive 
in, and I have flushed them when I walk the dogs.

Good birding,

Gladys

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Michigan Hollow Marsh

In case anyone is puzzled, this is _not_ the North Spencer Marsh down in Tioga 
County, it's the big sedge marsh at the _north_ end of Michigan Hollow, 
centered about 2.5 miles south of the Danby Town Hall. In its present form it's 
a mile-long beaver impoundment. The dam is about 1/4 mile upstream from the FLT 
bridge at "Diane's Crossing", familiar to many as the starting point for the 
Abbott Loop Trail.
