Last evening there was a Ruby-throated HUMMINGBIRD at one of my hummer
feeders here in Lansing, near the Asbury Church/Triphammer intersection.

Hi all,
A few days ago I posted a bird song, which sounded like both Junco and
Goldfinch (only two of you dared to guess) turns out is a Dark-eyed Junco.
Yesterday he was caught red handed. I have a cell phone video where you can see
him.
He was in the same nearby location as I had heard
I photographed the nest a week ago, on the 26th of April. There were two chicks
and they looked pretty freshly hatched. One was being fed by a parent, but I
never saw the other one move. I've put up two pics (not very good and heavily
cropped to show detail) on the CBC web site in my photo
I found just about the same birds in Sapsucker Woods early on Friday morning
(6:30-7:15 AM) as I did on Thursday (again I also missed the birds that
others reported). I did find a couple of possible new arrivals - a VEERY by
the middle of the Woodleton Boardwalk and a WARBLING VIREO by the Fuller
A Prairie Warbler was singing from the powerline cut near the outer parking
area.

Was last seen in the area across from the footbridge. Sang twice and gave a
few call notes, but was generally being uncooperative. Many people who
arrived did not get a look or hear it at all.

Cayuga bird list serv participants,
I heartily embrace the request to provide a location when posting to this list
serv. Although I attended Cornell and birded many of the areas mentioned, it
has been along time and it is often very difficult to figure out where people
are posting about.
George's post made me laugh out loud - but when a Lat Lon are readily
available, the location can be found very easily. I usually do not post on this
list because so many know so much more than I do - but I like the idea of lat
and Lon, I'm going to try to post that info on our local list and
*I can tell you from substantial experience that giving the county,
township and road is not nearly enough information to get most birders onto
the birds whose absence I was reporting yesterday.*
Yes, indeed!! It's very hard to get onto them when they are absent!

I am glad we are having this discussion about noting locations. I must say,
as a relative newcomer to the Ithaca area, it has been quite a challenge to
figure out where some of the posts are referring to---but I find it very
helpful when people mention at least the approximate town they are
Many apps give you your GPS location and many will help you get their.

paste them into an email. I Agree trying to get those digits moved over by

Hi everyone,
There is a couple visiting Ithaca this weekend for a workshop at the Lab, and
they would be interested in going out birding with someone in the local bird
club while in town. If anyone would be willing to take them birding on Sun. or
Mon. morning (the 5th or 6th), please contact
So there are two SSW walks this weekend, both Saturday and Sunday at 7:30 and a
bird club field trip to Hammond Hill on Sat leaving the Lab of O parking lot at
8:30.
I guess you are saying they just want a personal guide. But these are options
if no one materializes. And they can self guide
On the iPhone, the Google Earth app lets you copy the coordinates of any

you wish.
