When homeschooling, one sometimes has "sunny" days (rather than snow days), hence a quick drive to Montezuma and beyond today. Below is a short summary of waterfowl only. Had 3 flyovers by osprey between Union Springs and the north end of the lake. We had lots of snow geese and swans at the very north end of Cayuga Lake but they were on the west side, so no close views for id'ing the swans. The Wildlife Drive was still closed; seems like they're not expecting it to be open for at least another week or so.... Mostly Canada Geese with a small group of Ring-necked and American Wigeon at Mays Point with Northern Pintails added into the mix in our view from East Road. Traveled north to Oswego Harbor for views of 40 or so Long-Tailed Ducks, 4 White-winged Scoters, 16 Scaup, several pairs of Buffleheads and a single male Red-breasted Merganser.
