[cayugabirds-l] Redpolls again!

Yesterday we had our first REDPOLL in weeks, and today there were two. I joked with Ann Mitchell that yesterday's bird must have been an overflow bird from her flock of 50. So today she must be down to 48. Larry -- W. Larry Hymes 120 Vine Street, Ithaca, NY

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Redpolls again!

I've had Redpolls non-stop through the winter, never less than about 50 in the neighborhood. Although I suspended feeding them niger several times, they stayed and ate black oil sunflower seed. Multiple Fox Sparrows are singing now. Several Song Sparrows this morning. Wood Ducks have been

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Redpolls again!

I have never had this many Redpolls. I am feeding them the EXPENSIVE hulled black oiled sun flower seeds. They really like that. Guess the more you pay, the better outcome. Best, Ann Mitchell Sent from my IPhone On Apr 2, 2013, at 10:40 AM, Marie P. Read m...@cornell.edu wrote: I have had a

[cayugabirds-l] YB Sapsucker; Raven, other yard birds

This morning the first YB Sapsucker flew in and explored all his favorite trees in our yard. A Raven flew low circling overhead -- looking for something? I found a Song Sparrow sitting on a stump, singing very very quietly to himself, practicing his song. As I waited, he grew more confident and

[cayugabirds-l] Redpolls

Redpolls continue to come to my feeders in Newfield.   There were 10 on April 1 and only 8 that I saw today.   Having had none here all winter, it seems odd to have them hanging around for the past week.   I assumed they were just passing through when they first appeared a week or so ago.

Here on Wheeler Hill, Steuben County, we've had 100 plus Redpolls daily since January 18. Still here, still devouring niger seed. Michael -- www.foothillspublishing.com/poetguy www.foothillspublishing.com/48states www.facebook.com/people/Michael-Czarnecki/1575191103 Never Stop Asking for Poems

[cayugabirds-l] BOHEMIAN WAXWINGS at Sapsucker Woods

A flock of 16 — all BOHEMIANS — outside my office window 3 minutes ago. May have dropped down into trees or shrubs near the beginning of the Wilson Trail on north side of Cornell Lab building. I reached for my phone to try to get at picture and they were gone. KEN Ken Rosenberg Conservation

Re: [cayugabirds-l] OT O Canada

We can all Blame Canada! for this cold, bitter wind that is preventing all the birds from migrating to and thru here. Maybe Dave Nicosia has a more learned view on this... I think Dave did say that soon it might actually warm up with some southerly winds on which our little friends can fly

Re: [cayugabirds-l] BOHEMIAN WAXWINGS at Sapsucker Woods

Hi, Here are a few more details on my hard-to-believe sighting of BOHEMIAN WAXWINGS at Sapsucker Woods. I noticed a flock of birds dropping into a bare treetop outside my office window — raising my binoculars I saw that they were waxwings and counted 16. Although they were facing away against
