[cayugabirds-l] Christmas Bird Count Ithaca

2009-12-29 Thread Linda Orkin

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder and a plea. Our count is coming up fast. January One  
is right around the corner.


We still need counters in all areas for good results and for the  
satisfaction gained by having our whole wonderful birding community  
joining together in a common purpose.


Please email me if you are even just wavering on the brink of even  
considering doing this this year.


Hope to hear from you

Linda

[cayugabirds-l] Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in Ovid

2009-12-29 Thread Anne Marie Johnson
I just got pictures from my aunt whose neighbor has had a 
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker visiting her feeders in Ovid. I'm not sure 
the date of the last sighting, but the bird has been regular and was 
at this person's feeders last winter too. I'm not sure what count 
circle Ovid falls in, but if this bird is of interest for the CBC, I 
can get more details.

[cayugabirds-l] some waterfowl lurking

2009-12-29 Thread Elaina McCartney
The shooting has moved north, and I'm pleased to see about 200 
Redheads, approximately 50 Canvasbacks, 4 Tundra Swans, as well as 
Canadas and Mallards intermixed in front of my house.  The raft has 
been tightly packed and the waters rough from the wind, so somewhat 
hard to count and see other less obvious species at the moment (just 
north of Hog Hole).  There was a gathering of birds at dawn on the 
ice edge of Treman Marina park, the light was too bad to identify, 
but apparently the lawn chair crowd was elsewhere this morning.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Cayuga Basin boundaries

2009-12-29 Thread Geo Kloppel
Jennings Pond is most definitely (entirely) within the Cayuga basin,  
whether you mean the physical drainage basin or the arbitrarily  
"adjusted" basin as presented first in THE FLORA OF THE CAYUGA LAKE  
BASIN by Karl Wiegand and Arthur Eames, Cornell University, 1924. You  
can find an image of the original Wiegand and Eames map on the Cayuga  
Bird Club website at this link:

Specifically, is Jennings Pond in Danby within the basin for birding?
