Dear Cayuga Birders, I wanted to let you know about a cruise being offered aboard the MV Teal, run by the non-profit Discover Cayuga Lake, which may interest you.
*Join Dr Stephen Kress, author and ornithologist, for an introduction to some of the more than 100 bird species that frequent Cayuga Lake. Steve is well known in the Ithaca community and beyond as an entertaining teacher for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Cayuga Bird Club who uses stunningly beautiful photographs to enliven his presentations. This tour, for beginning and avid bird enthusiasts, will focus on the summer birds of Cayuga Lake. * It will be a COMMUNITY SUNSET CRUISE on Wed., June 16th from 7:30-9pm. DCL Community Cruises are free though donations are greatly appreciated and include a presentation by a community member on some aspect of our watershed. Dr. Stephen Kress will be our guest speaker. Reservations are required and can be made at THIS LINK <https://fareharbor.com/embeds/book/discovercayugalake/items/214372/availability/557157013/book/?full-items=yes&flow=356850> . If you can't make it to this cruise our Osprey Eco-Cruises are also generally themed around birds and lake ecology and are offered several times per week at 4:30 pm.
