It freezes only at the shallow ends and areas adjacent, usually.
A little raft of Redheads, Ring Necks, swimming, diving here. Accompanied by

Dave Nutter described the David Cup area. Has anyone developed a digital
map with boundaries as described below? Is the map in the CBC guide to the
basin accurate? There is a map on the Cayuga Bird Club website, but seems
to contradict some of the comments below. For example the Owasco Outlet

I pick up the morning paper on my commute route at Dandy's in
Slaterville Springs almost every morning. About two weeks ago I parked

mobbing the empty entrance to a tree cavity. I have checked the cavity

About a month ago the instructor for the IC course in Conservation
Biology asked me if I would lead a Sat. extra activity trip to look for
SNOW for students in the class . I said yes and we talked about the

When I went out to feed the birds this cold morning, I passed by the niger seed
feeder and came within a foot of a goldfinch perched at a feeding station. To
my surprise, it did not fly away, and on closer inspection, I saw that both
eyes were almost completely closed, and they were both crusted

I don't know what possessed me to suggest the lake might freeze over when there's a gap of some 30 miles. Still, the ice I saw yesterday was not merely over 3 or 5 feet of water, it may have been 30 to 50 feet deep. Today around mid-day I happened to drive NYS-89, after the west wind had been blowi
