[cayugabirds-l] Black Vulture, Cornell compost

2013-10-06 Thread Jay McGowan
Anne Clark reports a BLACK VULTURE on the piles and then in a tree at the
compost on Stevenson Road. She doesn't see it at the moment so it may be
airborne but is likely still in the area. Keep an eye out!

She also said she would be more than happy to trade vulture info for crow
sightings. If you see any tagged crows, whether at the compost or
elsewhere, let her or Kevin know.

[cayugabirds-l] Black Vulture, Cornell Compost

2013-08-28 Thread Jay McGowan
A BLACK VULTURE is currently sitting with many, many Turkey Vultures behind
the piles at the Cornell compost facility off Stevenson Road. A few
juvenile Turkeys around as well, so beware, but the Black stands out as
smaller and differently shapes, with longer legs, all dark head, and white
on visible primaries.

Now there are TWO Black Vultures here, sitting together on a board fence in
the island of bushes between the two silver canopies on the slope above the
piles. Conditions are a bit mucky in the piles, so looking from Stevenson
might be the way to go, they should be visible from there at the moment.
