Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Loons on Seneca

[Dave Nutter]

Late this morning there were 5 Common Loons on Cayuga Lake visible from the 
Allan H Treman State Marine Park as I scoped northward from the shore. The sky 
was cloudy, but the air temperature must’ve been close to the water 
temperature, because there was so little shimmer, and I had a good view between 
when the fog lifted and when the rainshowers set in. Anyway, there are still 
Loons on Cayuga Lake, enough for them to have spread more or less to the south 
end.

Thanks for that. I'm beginning to think Cayuga gets more
migrants than Senceca.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Loons on Seneca

[John Gregoire]

So far winds like that have not produced much. There really haven't been
any good winds yet. The forecast for here shows Monday has a good chance
with strong W NW wind. Fingers crossed! It's getting late in their season
but nothing certain anymore.

Today on Lake Ontario at Fair Haven SP: 15 Horned Grebes, 560 Red-breasted

I've been to check on Loons over Seneca Lake three times so far, and don't have 
much to report. Each day has shown under a dozen Loons. Guessing they haven't 
had a reason to move yet. A lot of south winds.

Yesterday two Great Black-backed Gulls flew low right overhead, emitting some

Is anyone watching for Loons on Cayuga this year?

NW to NNW winds are forecast for the morning of Tuesday the 29th, but the 
predicted velocity is quite low; don’t know if that will make for much of a 
loon flight…

11-12 in middle of Cayuga Lake just off my shore here in Lansing. More north 
and south.
Can hear much "hooting" from them. To me it sounds like squeaky, high-pitched 
dog barks.

They were joined by lots of Ring Billed Gulls, a few Herring Gulls, and a 
couple DC Cormorants hoping to steal fish from Loons.
Then a male White Winged Scoter flew by, going south!

Yellow Rumped Warbler up by RR track, along with all the feeder birds and 
Woodpeckers (Downy, Hairy, Red Bellied).

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Loons Whitney Point Reservoir June 19th.

[Donna Scott]

I occasionally see Common Loon or Loons on Cayuga Lake in Lansing in the summer 
- in breeding plummage.
I always wonder if they are breeding somewhere, but where could it be? The 
frequent waves from motor boat wakes could wash away lakeside nests. 
I have never seen Loon chicks in summer, however.

  A friend of mine found two COMMON LOONS Tuesday June 19th 

  on Whitney Point Reservoir in Broome County while fishing. He said
  the birds were yodeling and were black-colored. So apparently
  they were in breeding plumage. He often fishes in the Adirondacks
  and knows these birds well. He also had a very distant cell phone image
  that indeed looked like a loon. I will be heading up there tomorrow so
  maybe I can get a look. This could be a first summer record
  for Broome County. So far, no one can recall a summer record
  down here. Does anyone know the status of this species outside
  the Adirondacks in NY? I would imagine there has been some summer reports in
  the Finger Lakes in the past. Thanks.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Common loons

[Sarah Gould]

We took a boat ride yesterday along the west shore of Cayuga Lake from 
Maplewood Road to Taughannock Park.  We saw one group of five loons and five or 
six individual loons.  We also saw two adult bald eagles along the shore of the 
Girl Scout camp, about halfway between Maplewood and Taughannock.

Has anyone been watching the lake for migrating common loons yet? We saw a few 
in the water off Taughannock last week.
