[cayugabirds-l] Tufted Duck present then gone

Chris and Jessie and Jeff had the female type TUFTED DUCK earlier this morning from Hog Hole, but at about 8:00 (I believe) it flew north out of sight with a flock of Redheads. These Redhead flocks have been moving up and down the lake so it may well return, but it is not being seen currently.

[cayugabirds-l] Short-eared Owl, Ithaca Airport

Just had a SHORT-EARED OWL foraging around over the fields at the Ithaca Airport viewed from halfway down Snyder Road. I first spotted it perched on a small pole in the field. It changed poles twice, soared around a bit, then headed off across the road into the woods. This was at about

A probable female and a reported male HOARY REDPOLL are frequenting the north (and presumably south) feeders at the Lab of Ornithology at Sapsucker Woods today (and for a couple of days before this, apparently.) Also reportedly at least two Greater (rostrata) Common Redpolls. Jay --

[cayugabirds-l] Hoary Redpolls

Hi all, I just saw a probable female HOARY REDPOLL in a group of about 220 Common Redpolls that were working (and by working I mean flying over and occasionally landing in trees for less than a minute at a time) the area around the parking area of the new FLLT preserve on Irish Settlement Road,

Bob McGuire and ten others on the bird club field trip are watching what they believe is likely a gray GYRFALCON perched in a tree along the north treeline of Knox-Marsellus Marsh at Montezuma. They are working to get better looks to confirm it. -- Jay McGowan Macaulay Library Cornell Lab

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese, Cayuga and Seneca lakes

Despite heavy migration last week, today many thousands of SNOW GEESE remain in several large flocks somewhere about halfway up on Cayuga Lake, and a single large flock on Seneca Lake. I know because I saw them from my window seat.
