[cayugabirds-l] Stewart Park boundaries

I was just looking at ecode section 336-10, which concerns the boundaries of Stewart Park. A casual reading might suggest that the park extends north into the lake a considerable distance (all the way to the city line), but this is not the case. A more careful reading will reveal that within the

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Loon watch and foy here

Hi Meena and John Have to chime in here, as the lake and I are rather good friends, from a few thousand hours of rowing and sailing! From Taughannock State Park it's 8 miles on the water to Stewart Park at the bottom end of the lake, and the west shore down there (Hog Hole) is only 1.8 miles e

As someone who frequents Fuertes Bird Sanctuary, I greatly appreciated Dave's courage and posting and the resulting discussion this brought up. Since tickets were not issued and the hunters were bitter, shouldn't we follow up - especially because this has happened before (re: picture of hunters wit

[cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Bird Club Loon Watch

With temperatures hovering a few degrees above freezing and winds gusting from the NW at 20+ knots, conditions seemed perfect for a substantial loon flight this morning. The 20+ Cayuga Bird Club members and observers who arrived at Taughannock State Park around dawn were not disappointed. Dividi

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Loon watch and foy here

I had a super time at the loon watch this morning witnessing the large flights of loons and visiting with everyone there. Gary and I went around the lake afterwards, and saw many more loons on the lake. Looks like there will be some more spectacular flights! Good birding, Ann Sent from my iPho

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Loon watch and foy here

Hi Meena, Good to see you at Taughannoch. John and Sue Gregoire and I thought that some of the big, loose flocks of loons that were well north of the point we stood on at Taughannoch was far more likely to take them over the southern tip of Seneca Lake than to the southern tip of Cayuga

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Loon watch and foy here

John, I am not sure if they are following Susquehanna or they are just taking a direct route. If you look up on the map, it seems they can fly directly to Chesapeake Bay in direct line, they don't need to follow Route 15 as we do. Route 15 is at least 20 miles left to their target destination

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Loon watch and foy here

Meena pls pass to Wes and Diane. Sue and I continued on to Seneca Lake where we found no loons. In thinking about those high Southwestward flyers we believe they had plenty of altitude to spot the Susquehanna and thus took a bit more direct route down Rte 15! (runs alongside the river from Cornin
