[cayugabirds-l] South winds brought NSWO

Ok, that's mean. How many of you had that annoying feeling about those stupid BBL (O, there I go again, that's Bird Banding Lab) acronyms. Just kidding, a little tease. Anyway, last night from 7:30-9:00 with two nets last night and a digital caller, Karen and I were able to catch one, fat

[cayugabirds-l] Red Tail with Crow

We have a pair of Red-tailed Hawks that have been around for several years. I have seen one carrying a grouse, rabbit, mice, and even have a great picture of one of them snatching a wounded starling off the snow.but yesterday one few by with a crow in its talons with 20 plus crows in hot pursuit.

[cayugabirds-l] Crow with Salamander

Lot of crow talk this morning so I thought I'd share an observation. While driving on Sandbank Rd. this morning, I saw a crow in the road pecking at something then fly off with what appeared to be a large dark salamander, presumably a Spotted. Bill E -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:

[cayugabirds-l] MNWR

2pm this afternoon I saw 2 Barn Swallows flying out over the Main pool with a group of 12 Tree Swallows. While eating lunch near the new shorebird habitat a Caspian Tern flew over very low. There was 1DC Cormorant at Knox Marcellus. Janet Akin -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:

[cayugabirds-l] Thanks

Hi, All, I want to thank all who replied to the e-mail that I had forwarded. Though there were no rare birds, it sounds like the SFO group saw some good birds! I did want to say that, that I have been hearing a Woodcock in the field opposite my North Wood apartment building. This is the

Spring Field Ornithology field trip most likely. I'm on Sun trips, and we stopped along Rt 13 to admire AMERICAN KESTRELs hovering effortlessly in one place over a mown field, while an EASTERN MEADOWLARK serenaded us from a wire over the same field. Lots of ducks/teals/ etc in the wet areas.

[cayugabirds-l] crow nesting

I just looked out in back and saw our pair of yard AMER. CROWS sitting side-by-side on a willow branch, each with its mouth stuffed with the shredded inner bark of a nearby dead willow. What a great missed photo op! They flew off to the west, so apparently are not using their old nest from last

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Red Tail with Crow

Interesting observation. To crows Red-tailed Hawks are kind of like traffic: if you pay attention you'll almost never get hurt, but if you don't, it will kill you. I think a Red-tail might take an incubating female crow, but again, she would have to be not paying attention. Certainly Great

[cayugabirds-l] Myers Osprey

As I drove up to the point at Myers at 7:40 this morning, an OSPREY was just rising from the water off the mouth of Salmon Creek with a nice fish in its talons. A couple of Ring-billed Gulls (wishful thinking) made brief attempts at larceny. A Black-backed might have had a chance. The
