Our Spring Field Ornithology group went to Shindagin Hollow in
Caroline this morning (just out of the Cayuga Lake Basin) and we were
all thrilled to have a great look at an immature Golden Eagle over
the beaver pond/Balsam Fir Swamp area. We were also treated to very
good views of Brown Creepers, Winter Wren (poking around in the
stream at the junction of Shindagin Hollow and Gulf Creek Roads), at
least 4 Hermit Thrushes, and Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers. We heard a
number of songs from a Louisiana Waterthrush (probably the same one
Matt Medler heard) and one or two Blue-headed Vireos.
At Goetchius Preserve on Flat Iron Road we watched a Red-shouldered
Hawk, among other things.
A beautiful morning to be out.
