RE: [cayugabirds-l] Tundra Swans

Jennifer,

Such a sweet remembrance of your uncle. Thanks for sharing.

I have birded that spot for many years, and I have never gone beyond the road’s 
end, nor seen anyone do anything except scope the view from the public road. I 
know it happens, but most of the birding community is respectful of property 
rights.

And the swans this weekend were wonderful. (I counted 13.) I love hearing them 
talk amongst themselves. Their voices are so layered and resonant.

Best,

Kevin

Robyn,

Thank you for not trespassing.  My aunt lives down there and it can sometimes 
get quite frustrating when people come in and wander freely as though it's a 
regular park area.  It is not, it just has "park" in the name of the road.  I 
appreciate your consideration.  :)

It warmed my heart to hear of the swans, thank you.  When my uncle was dying, 
he asked to come home to Ladoga Park from Florida.  He wanted to see his 
beloved lake again and hoped to see some swans too.  It was February over a 
decade ago, and he got to see the swans.  I will let my aunt know they are 
back.  <3

but maybe more (I didn’t want to trespass and get closer to the private docks).

[cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Lake ice

2022-01-25 Thread Johnson, Alyssa 
Good morning all,

Could I get an update on what the ice looks like on the north end of the lake? 
I'm working from home currently, and haven't spent anytime along the lake in a 
while. Just curious where the ice sheet ends. Last year it extended past Cayuga 
Lake SP boat launch area, but that was into February I believe.

Thanks! Alyssa
