[cayugabirds-l] Ithaca gulls

[Jay McGowan]

John's message reminded me I had meant to post—as we often do this time of
year, we're getting a nice influx of Lesser Black-backed Gulls this week.
Yesterday morning I tallied 31 between Myers, Stewart Park, and the
Stevenson Road compost, nearly all full breeding plumage adults. There has
also been a subadult Iceland Gull, either a dark Kumlien's or a palish
Thayer's, at the compost, along with a freakishly white gull that looks
like a Glaucous at first glance, but seems to actually be a leucistic
Herring based on its fairly small size but hefty bill.

Photos of the last two on my compost checklist from yesterday:

One soared and circled over the south-east edges of the Hile school wetland on 
Sunday. First I have seen this spring.

[cayugabirds-l] Cayuga's Ospreys—they are back!

[Candace E. Cornell]

Cayuga's Ospreys—they are back—at least most males are! (Females often
arrive a week or so later than the males.) The Spring Equinox, March 20,
2022, marked the return of this year's breeding Cayuga Lake Ospreys from
Ithaca to Seneca Falls. Since then, experienced male breeders can be seen
in the parks and along roadways gathering sticks to refurbish their nests
and defend them from interlopers. Ithaca's Cass Park ballfield pair and the
Seneca Falls' Opera House pair were the first breeding pairs seen on their
nests this year. Females return at a slower pace than the males waiting for
them at their nest. Soon we'll hear many excited "Creee, creee, cree"

Thank you to everyone who reports Osprey sightings and nest locations
during the breeding season. There are over 170 Osprey nests located in the
Finger Lakes, concentrated around Cayuga and Seneca Lakes, and it is
becoming one of the largest inland populations in the eastern US. Nest
spotters and monitors are needed throughout the Finger Lakes to help survey
this growing population. This data is used to track population growth,
fecundity, and nest preferences as well as environmental changes. Email me
if you would like to participate in this study. Again, my thanks.

(Please send reports of Ospreys to cec...@gmail.com as well as Ebird).
