Re: [cayugabirds-l] Montezeuma

My count was 26 Cranes at the MNWR visitors’ center yesterday about 3:00 PM. 
Mostly standing around, or strutting a bit, lightly tooting their horns. Made 
me think of a brass band just gathering in the assembly area before the start 
of a parade. Indeed at 3:15 they all went walking north together along the dike

Janie Leff and I went today and saw plenty of Sand hill cranes  along with a 
bunch of pintails and shovelers and other ducks in the pond near the nature 
center. And, thanks to Suan, Janie almost immediately spotted the Red headed 
woodpecker in the row of trees in the parking lot, lakeside.

Thanks Suan.
There were 31 cranes at Visitor Center pool last Friday morning and, from
the Seneca Trail tower one can see the adult eagle incubating her egg(s?).
The bugling calls the cranes were making was worth the price of admission.

P.S. Come to my talk on the upcoming solar eclipse. Visitor Center on 4/6 @
11am.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Montezeuma

[Suan Hsi Yong]

The Visitor Center has been hosting a dozen or more Sandhill Cranes, plus a
good assortment of ducks. The wildlife drive does not open until April 1,
so besides a short walk to the lookout platform, there's not much else to
check out in the main entrance area. Other sites may be worth exploring
(Esker Brook Trail, Tschache Pool, May's Point, Knox-Marsellus/East Road,
and points northward), though I have not heard of any special sightings
lately. Of course, you never know what may pop up from one day to the next
during migration season.

Down in the Cayuga Lake State Park parking lot, you can look for the
Red-headed Woodpecker that has been hanging out all winter in the trees
along the main road.
