[cayugabirds-l] Northern Gannet/Parasitic Jaeger/Black-legged Kittiwake/Finches

2012-10-31 Thread Matthew Young
Hello all,


Just a quick rundown of my highlights. After getting the inspection done on 
my car,  I did a quick late morning run through Summerhill to Owasco Lake. 
...from there I headed to Cayuga Lake. 


Summerhill: 75 PINE SISKINS and 1 COMMON REDPOLL at feeders at the house on 
Lake Como (Fire Ln E?). ~20 EVENING GROSBEAKS and PURPLE FINCHES at the 
Hovel Chalet on Fillmore Rd. 


Owasco Lake at south end: 1 Juvy NORTHERN GANNET came down the lake mid 
height and then disappeared over the ridge to the east. 


Long Pt State Park on Cayuga Lake: for second day in a row an ADULT 
BLACK-LEGGED KITTIWAKE (today's went by closer), PURPLE SANDPIPER, SURF 
SCOTER, BLACK SCOTER AND 1000+ BRANT. 


Rte 90 south of Long Pt: lots of Robins, 10+ E. BLUEBIRDS, 30+ AMERICAN 
PIPITS, and 1 NORTHERN SHRIKE. 


Myers Pt: LONG-TAILED DUCK


Bluffs overlooking Aurora: juvy LAUGHING GULL


High Banks/McKenzie-Childs: 2 RED-NECKED GREBES, 3 WHITE-WINGED SCOTERS, 
and 1 dark PARASITIC JAEGER


Started morning off at feeders at house with a lone PINE SISKIN, 
RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH and WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW...not bad for the city. 


I missed the Ross' Gull and storm-petrels, but did get the Kittiwake and 
Jaegerand the Gannet was a nice pick up for sure.. Overall, a nice 
day...and the storm brought us some nice birds. 


cheers,
Matt Young
