Hi all,
The large Snow Goose flocks have been frustrating this winter, either
in the middle of the lake, flying over at dusk or in the corn stubble north of
the lake. The best place I found today for scanning Snow Geese was the area
between Beacon Feed Marina and Mud Lock at the north

Around 4 PM today (Sun.) I and others (Sandy, Bruce) got good looks at the
WESTERN TANAGER in areas around the west side of Day Hall on the Cornell Campus.

The WESTERN TANAGER was very cooperative at mid-day today on the Cornell
campus, making rounds between the hedge on the south side of Day Hall, the east
entrance of the Campus Store, and various points along Wee Stinky Glen. Lots of
people saw and photographed this bird. My photos can be found
Dave,
Here you go. These were from Thursday afternoon when I stopped by for 40
minutes or so. First in a thicket of brush around Day Hall, then in the
large clump of green bushes on the other side of the path by the rear
entrance of the Store, where a woman was leaving seed for him.
A red-shouldered hawk was calling at Lindsay-Parsons, from the woods just past
Celia's Cup. It called several times from a seemingly close distance, but I
could never get a visual.

I was so excited about the Golden Eagles I forgot to say where they were.
They flew over my yard on Burns Road in Brooktondale.

Just added GOLDEN EAGLE to my yard list! Two soaring fairly low but gaining
altitude as they moved to the southeast. I could easily see bands on the
tail of one but not so well on the other. Perhaps an adult and an immature.
Very beautiful and very exciting!!

Had at least six Pine Siskins this morning here at Commonland, singing with
some regularity, along with a foy4me Red-Winged Blackbird, plus songs from
Carolina Wren, cardinal, chickadee, titmouse, mourning dove (FOY cooing song
for me).
