The KING EIDER was still present between 9:30-9:45 and best seen from the

Hi all,
I was very surprised to see a very red FOX SPARROW under my feeder in northeast
Ithaca this morning. A late record and one of the few I've had in my suburban

Meg and I were treated to a very good view of the King eider at the

not see any food in its bill. A large raft of Canada Geese separated it
Hi All,
I just saw a small flock of 5 Northern Shovlers in the little bay
