[cayugabirds-l] Nature of Montezuma Lecture October 5th
Saturday, October 5, 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Nature of Montezuma Lecture - Imperial Dreams: Tracking the Imperial Woodpecker Through the Wild Sierra Madre In the vast mountain pine forests of Mexico’s Sierra Madre Occidental lived a bird like no other—a spectacular giant woodpecker, two feet in length, largest of its clan that ever lived. With the deepest black plumage and brilliant, snow-white feathers that show as a white shield on its back, the Imperial Woodpecker is the closest relative of America’s famed Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The last documented sighting of an Imperial took place in 1956, and yet rumors still persist among the mountain villagers that this bird still lives in the remotest reaches of this mighty mountain range.

[cayugabirds-l] 17th Annual Montezuma Muckrace September 6-7
17th Annual Montezuma Muckrace 2013 Help celebrate the diversity of birds in the Montezuma Wetlands Complex (MWC) by participating in the 17th annual Montezuma Muckrace, September 6-7,2013. This “Big Day” birding event is an excellent opportunity to test your birding skills and raise funds for conservation in this internationally recognized Important Bird Area. More birds and more places to see them – that’s what we’re supporting! Our goal this year is to raise $12,000 to establish a general fund for habitat restoration and improvement projects throughout the complex. We are in need of building up our Habitat Restoration/MARSH fund so that the Friends can have some flexibility to respond to ongoing and/or unexpected needs. All funds collected will be administered by FOTMWC in consultation with USFWS, NYSDEC, and the staff at the MAC. Some ways the funds might be used besides supporting wetland and grassland habitat restoration in the Complex: -we would like to continue our support for Black Duck banding and data collection -matching money for grant applications -projects that enhance access (trails, blinds, viewing platforms) -purchase supplies to support the MARSH program (e.g. waders, GPS units, optics) As funds are appropriated and put to use, we will post addendums to the 2013 Muckrace Musings to keep you apprised of all the good work your donations have supported. The 2013 Muckrace starts at 7:00 PM on September 6th and ends 24 hours later with a brief closing ceremony at the Montezuma Audubon Center. Each team keeps a check list of species seen within the boundaries of the Complex for any or all of the 24-hour period. There are several levels of participation: Competitive (3 or more individuals who must count together); Youth (ages 9-16, any number, identifying birds without adult assistance); LowCarbon any number, no motorized assistance biking,walking, paddling, sitting, etc); Family/Mentor (any number, at least one parent/leader with any number of young/beginning birders) Recreational (any number of adults). Last year, 27 teams, numbering 93 individuals from throughout New York and neighboring states, tallied 183 species, with the winning competitive team, the Gallinagos (Cayuga Bird Club) finding 135 species. The LowCarbon category was won by Team Sittidae (Eaton Birding Society) with 58 species. The Family/Mentor category was won by Counting Crows, with 66 species. Thirteen Recreational teams also contributed to a diverse bird list and a great time, with the top team in this category, The Plucky Mucksters, (Cayuga Bird Club), finding 104 species. On the Friends website (see below) you can find the complete list of species seen in the 2012 Muckrace Musings. Last years competition generated $13,097.00, which will fund both a viewing platform on the Deep Muck site, and some wetland restoration along the Seneca River. Donations are solicited through pledges sought by participants, registration fees, and sponsorships. Mid-September is an exciting time to be birding at the Montezuma Wetlands Complex, one of New York's most productive birding destinations. Please consider either participating with your own team or pledging support to your local team. The Muckrace is sponsored by the Friends of the Montezuma Wetlands Complex (FOTMWC) in cooperation with USFWS, NYSDEC, and Audubon NY. To access complete information about the 2013 Muckrace, including the registration form, the checklist, the rules, and previous years’ newsletters, "Muckrace Musings," visit the FOTMWC website (http://friendsofmontezuma.org/muck_race.html).

The Montezuma Audubon Center is proud to welcome David Bonter, Project FeederWatch Program Leader, on Saturday December 1 at 1 PM for a presentation about his current research on backyard birds.
