Re: [cayugabirds-l] Fledgling great horned owl?
Hi Claire, This sounds like a really cool observation (and yes it is a Great Horned Owl), but in the future I would advise others not to post specific locations of potentially vulnerable birds. If this bird has been abandoned and/or isn't doing well, it would be better to not send people there who might accidentally disturb it or even try to keep it. Best, Evan On Thu, May 1, 2014 at 12:21 PM, Claire Hope Fox clairehope...@yahoo.comwrote: Hello, My husband and I came across an enormous fledgling owl in our woods on Monday afternoon, 4/28. To my untrained eye it looked like a Great Horned Owl, but we have heard a Barred Owl in our woods recently. It was still partly downy and had some adult wing feathers. It was perched on the end of a log, alert and watching our every move. It clacked its beak loudly and puffed up its feathers dramatically, but did not attempt to fly. I remember its bright eyes and circular head movements. It was impressive! At 10:30am this morning we saw it again, a very short distance away from where it was on Monday, perched on another fallen log. This time, however, it was unresponsive to our presence (we were making plenty of noise). It was fluffed up and its eyes were barely open, and it did not clack or raise its feathers. It had been sitting there for a while, as evidenced by the droppings beneath. I found the change in its behavior concerning. I am wondering if this is normal behavior for a fledgling owl? Was it merely sleepy and cold? If you would like to come and see it, it is on our property at 786 Elm St Ext. in Ithaca. To get there, go up West Hill on Elm St, continue past Westhaven Rd and ValleyView, to where the road levels out. You will see a black mailbox on the left w/786 just before the road dips down into Coy Glen. Our driveway is on the right, across from the mailbox, heading into the forest. The owl is located on the left side of the driveway towards the end of the straight stretch, before the driveway veers right. When last seen it was perched on a fallen log on the near side of the gorge. Walk for less than a minute into the forest on the edge of the gorge to locate it. My husband Mark will be home this afternoon, his # is 227-4328. If you have trouble finding it, he might be able to help.

[cayugabirds-l] Ecuador Conservation Blog
Dear Cayugabirders, Greetings from Ecuador! Please pardon this post not directly related to birds. Some of you may remember the blog I kept last summer on taking children birding in Mexico (www.ebarrientos.blogspot.com). Since there were many of you who told me how much you enjoyed receiving updates from my blog, I wanted to let you all know that I'll be keeping another blog this summer while I research a shade coffee initiative in the mountains of Ecuador. We all know that shade coffee is quite an interesting topic for bird conservation, and while my study and blog will include this aspect, it will also deal with topics such as poverty reduction, sustainable agriculture, and the coexistence of humans and nature. The link to the first post is below, as well as the link to the blog. If you would like to receive updates, please send me an email, as I will not be sending emails to the listserve this time. Thank you for reading, and I hope you will join me on this adventure.

Would the person who corrected David's ID care to share with the group how to reliable separate the two species from a view like David's photo? I imagine this is a very common confusion and it would be good to clarify to avoid future false alarms, and just for the sake of bird IDs in general.

[cayugabirds-l] Fwd: eBird Report - Palmer Woods, May 9, 2012
Fantastic morning at Palmer Woods, Cornell Campus today, even though I got there at 10:40am. That was my first time there and I certainly was impressed. 43 species and 15 warblers, plus beautiful and variable habitat. BAY-BREASTED WARBLER and female MOURNING WARBLER were highlights. At first I thought the Mourning was a Connecticut, but after getting a few looks I realized its eye-ring was too narrow and incomplete. A word of caution: At one point a man in his 20s walked by who was probably on drugs or mentally insane. He was talking very loudly to himself about spirits being channeled through his grandfather's watch. Fortunately, as he approached and walked by me he did not even seem to notice I was there. Not saying he was harmful, but you never know what to expect from people like him. Also, there was a CAPE MAY WARBLER sining from the spruces at 310 Triphammer Road, along with a nice flock of warblers and a SCARLET TANAGER. Good birding!

Such an awesome bird and one of my favorite Spring traditions. http://ebarrientos.smugmug.com/Nature/nature-in-new-york/Just-Birds-New-York/22787204_sSSZJ4#!i=1827968712k=3K7MGqC Evan B -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods, Apr 17, 2012
Spent a nice 4 hours walking around the pond this morning at SSW. Lots of sining YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS! Less activity than I had hoped for but still good birding. Interestingly, it wasn't until around 10am that I began to see the YRWAs. Several NORTHERN FLICKERS and YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKERS chasing each other. Nothing rare, but interesting species included 2 RUSTY BLACKBIRDS at the south end of the pond, 1 BROAD-TAILED HAWK, a MINK by the small pond on the west side of the large pond, and 2 NORTHERN WATER SNAKES mating at Fuller Wetlands.

[cayugabirds-l] Why do birds sing to themselves?
For the last 5 minutes there's been an adult male Dark-eyed Junco just 8ft away from me foraging on the ground outside Mann Library on Cornell Campus. Sporadically, he's been quietly singing to himself while he forages, but so quietly that nothing further than 10ft away could hear. The bird is also alone. I've seen other birds do this before on occasion, such as American Robins, but I don't know why? Are they practicing their songs? Anyone have an answer?

[cayugabirds-l] Snyder Road Woococks and Waterfowl
Hi everyone, This evening starting at about 7:20pm I explored the pond near the intersection of Snyder and Mohawk Roads before listening for Woodcocks. On the pond I saw 50 RING-NECKED DUCKS, 3 HOODED MERGANSERS, 1 GREAT-BLUE HERON, 2 WOOD DUCKS, and several Mallards and Canada Geese. I also found a fresh dead ERMINE in the field, still in white fur. There also was a pair of EASTERN BLUEBIRDS in another nearby field. Around 7:45, 1 AMERICAN WOODCOCK began calling from the brush, but after waiting 15 min he only took flight once. I drove to another small field near the intersection of Cherry and Warren Roads and got very close to another Woodcock calling and doing flight displays. I was able to locate and watch the bird from about 20 ft away with a light. The bird made no significant effort hide or escape. It walked around for a minute, poking the grass with its bill, and then flew away.

[cayugabirds-l] 60 species Sapsucker Woods Yesterday
Hi everyone, I know there were quite a few reports from Sapsucker Woods yesterday, but I did see a few things that I didn't see reported. I had 14 warbler species, including close looks at 7:40 of the BAY-BREASTED in the pine trees near the feeders. Yellow-rumped Warblers were DRIPPING from the trees along the Wilson Trail boardwalk. It was hard to estimate, but I'd say about 40. Saw one male and female SCARLET TANAGER. A male RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD was performing his pendulum flight display for a female on the east side of the pond. Heard one RUSTY BLACKBIRD calling repeatedly at the south end of the pond. It was a great morning with really impressive numbers. I still can't believe I had 60 species in such a small area! Photos coming soon!

Hey everyone, I had a very productive 2.5 hour walk this morning in the Cornell Plantations across the suspension bridge in Fall Creek Valley.

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods- 2 snakes
Hi everyone, I took a very short walk in Sapsucker Woods before going to work this afternoon and was lucky enough to spot a handsome Eastern Garter Snake and a fairly large Northern Water Snake resting just a few feet away from each other in the transitional area after the boardwalk heading south. Not sure how common the latter is, but I thought I'd mention it. Also saw Common Grackles, a Hairy Woodpecker, and a Red-bellied Woodpecker excavating a nest cavity. Briefly heard a Red-breasted Nuthatch.

[cayugabirds-l] Mockingbird, Renwick Woods, Mt. Pleasant, Jim Schug Trail, Dryden Lake, and George Rd. Pond
Hi everyone, Here are my e-bird lists from some birding Friday morning. Highlights included a Northern Mockingbird singing at East Hill Plaza, two GREAT HORNED OWLS in Renwick Woods, a pair of American Kestrels copulating at the north end of the Jim Schug Trail, and six Bonaparte's Gulls and two HORNED GREBES on George Rd. Pond. Also we saw some very interesting Mallard behavior at Stewart Park in which one male attempted to mount a female in the water while another male attacked him several times. In the end, the female broke away, and the THE TWO MALES ASSUMED A COPULATION POSITION. Overall a very productive morning.

[cayugabirds-l] Hello and Winter Photos
Hi everyone, I was subscribed to the list last fall but I never got around to introducing myself. My name is Evan Barrientos and I'm a student at Cornell University. I've been birding for about four years and I also do a lot of nature photography. These photos are a bit late, but I'd like to share a couple links, one of feeder birds at the Lab of O (including a Rusty Blackbird) taken on Feb 25 , and some very poor quality documentation shots of the male Eurasian Green-winged Teal at Lake George Jr. Hopefully I'll be sending many more eBird lists and photo links in the future.
