rapid response. Matt will share up-to-date information about invasive species 
and tell us how the PRISM program works for our region.

[cayugabirds-l] Ruby throated humming bird

2023-10-17 Thread Barbara Bauer Sadovnic 
A male ruby throated humming bird visited our feeder this morning. I saw one 
very briefly two days ago, but this one perched and sipped for a while.

At the same time our tulip tree was full of warblers, but I couldn’t identify 
them.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Black Scoters, Myers Point

2023-10-17 Thread Matthew Young 
A group of 10 Cornell students (part of a couple classes I teach in spring
and fall) and I had a flock of 17 Brant continuously circling at Stewart
Park this morning. There were also a few Ruddy Ducks, the female Surf
Scoter, a Lesser Scaup, 2 Ring-necked Ducks, Coots and more were seen as
well.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Waxwings

2023-10-17 Thread Dave Nutter 
Agreed, Pokeweed berries are great bird food, as well as being beautiful 
colorful plants. I have also had Swainson’s Thrush, Gray Catbird, Scarlet 
Tanager, Red-eyed Vireo, and Northern Cardinal eating them.

[cayugabirds-l] Black Scoters, Myers Point

2023-10-17 Thread Jay McGowan 
A flock of about 60 Black Scoters, a mix of males and females, is currently
out on the lake directly out from the spit at Myers Point, fairly distant
but giving reasonable scope views. A female type Surf and White-winged
scoter are also around the lighthouse area. Some Brant have flown by going
south, and a few were just reported at Stewart Park as well.
