re: [cayugabirds-l] CayugaRBA GRAY KINGBIRD Van Dyne
Astounding! That's about 3 miles from the location where a Gray Kingbird was found around this time of year in 1987 (23 years ago), and under similar circumstances. I recall former basin birder Dick Evans telling me that someone had reported one and none from local birding community followed up on it thinking it was likely a mistaken ID, as is frequently the case with this species. Then finally three weeks later it was found for many to see. What a treat for folks attending the NYSOA meeting in nearby Auburn, NY. I wonder if the meeting's paper session started on time this afternoon? ;) Bill E From: 6072292...@vtext.com Sent: Saturday, October 23, 2010 12:14 PM To: cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu Subject: [cayugabirds-l] CayugaRBA GRAY KINGBIRD Van Dyne CayugaRBA GRAY KINGBIRD Van Dyne Spoor Rd Seneca St by Dominic Sherony --Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html 3) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ -- -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html 3) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Loons
This morning, Susie had a craving for Triangle Diner chili, while I had a hankering for to see some COMMON LOONS. So we went N. around mid-day and found what we sought. I counted the listed number of loons on the lake at the following locations; most counts fairly accurate-no estimates. 360 Long Point SP-feeding frenzy 100 N. of LPSP 150 Aurora Bluffs south 90Wells Coll. boathouse, looking N. 106 Aurora Bluffs north Total = 806 Notes: The feeding frenzy was just off the point at LPSP and also involved mostly RING-BILLED GULLS (150) and D. C. CORMORANTS (40). I could not determine what they all were after. During the height of the frenzy, I counted 110 loons on a scan. After it was over, and most of the loons were resting on the surface, I scanned the small area and counted 360. I've never seen that many loons in such a small area. These numbers might be useful in estimating total loons in an area where they are actively feeding-twice as many loons being below the surface as on it. S. S.

[cayugabirds-l] Montezuma Today
Montezuma was hopping today. The annual NYSOA meeting was held at the MAC in Savannah, with a number of top birders leading field trips in the area all morning. Those of us in the business meeting got a call just before noon that a GRAY KINGBIRD had been seen just east of Savannah. Apparently the bird was seen by a number of participants on one of the trips - and then flew off to the east and could not be re- found. On the way home after lunch I stopped by Knox-Marcellus marsh where Kevin McGowan pointed out two GREAT WHITE-FRONTED GEESE. Shortly thereafter a line of eight (!) more were spotted swimming along. There had also been a report of a ROSS'S GOOSE, which Stu Krasnoff eventually found and put us on. Then, following up on the report of a HUDSONIAN GODWIT at the Visitor's Center, Stu and I drove there. Although the Hudwit was not present, we did find 4 BLACK-BELLIED PLOVERS and 2 WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPERS along with a flock of some 20 DUNLIN. Finally, at the new shorebird habitat along the wildlife drive, we did find the Hudwit as well as some 20 BLACK-BELLIED PLOVERS, 12 DUNLIN, and another WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER. Also there was a flock of some 4-5 AMERICAN PIPITS. Also reported by one of the field trips was a YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER at Fair Haven State Park.
