[cayugabirds-l] Orioles

2019-05-15 Thread Carol Keeler
It’s certainly been a year for Orioles. I have at least three males and two females. The surprise today was having two Orchard Orioles show up. One is a female. The male looks like a first summer male in Sibley. They like the oranges and grape jelly so maybe they will stay around. Sent

[cayugabirds-l] Frontenac Island Cormorants - can't we coexist?

2019-05-15 Thread Sandy
Let's not vilify the cormorants, and strive to co-exist! Cayuga Lake is enormous; so I find it hard to believe cormorants would deplete a fish population. The eagle and osprey populations have been growing greatly around the lake, so I don't think it would be fair for fishermen to blame a supposed

We had 3 or 4 Orioles at our feeders yesterday. They were enjoying the hummingbird feeders and devoured an orange. Hope they are still here today! Also, had hummingbirds on the 10th. Sally and Tim Eller Town of Romulus Route 89, lakeside On Wed, May 15, 2019, 6:28 AM Tom wrote: > After a slow

After a slow start the Baltimore Orioles are entertaining us at our feeders here in Lansing. What appears to be 2 pair seem to prefer the hummingbird feeder and peanuts. We’ll put out fruit or jam later today. Tom Vawter Sent from my iPhone -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:
