2014-04-26 Thread daven1...@yahoo.com

Fairly steady flight of gulls and terns up the lake so far. 

Had a couple  flocks of BONAPARTES GULLS, and 2 more COMMON TERNS. Also ring 
billed gulls too heading up the lake. 
Also PURPLE MARTINS hanging around. Are they nesting in the martin housing?

Bank Swallows at Van Dyne Spoor. Bonaparte's Gulls and Caspian Terns
everywhere.

[cayugabirds-l] Willow Ptarmigan

2014-04-26 Thread M Miller
I last saw the Willow Ptarmigan at 1 PM along South Shore Extension (a 1/2 mile 
long dead end off S. Shore Rd). It was on the beach side of the road about 1/2 
way down towards the end. It had moved down the road from it’s earlier 
position. Best way to get there is to take rte. 57 to South Shore Rd, follow 
that down the west side of the peninsula. Where the road makes a left turn, the 
S. Shore Extension turns right. Please use care parking  walking, that is all 
private property.


Photos available on facebook (go to the Eaton Birding Society facebook page).


Also had Savannah Sparrow, E. Meadowlarks, Am Kestrels, Rough-legged hawk, 
red-tails, and a snowy owl in the area.

[cayugabirds-l] Dean's Cove osprey

2014-04-26 Thread John and Fritzie Blizzard
Returned to Union Springs from Ithaca via Rte 89 today. If someone 
reported this nest, I failed to see it.

*#22* ...*_Dean's__Cove_*  a smidgeon north of Dean's Cove on 
the west side of 89. Bird on the nest  one flying. This nest was there 
last yr..

*/Seneca Falls Country Club entrance/*:  Along Rte. 89 south of Cayuga 
Lake SP.   I saw the nest on the NYSEG platform but didn't see any 
visible bird. If someone else is in that area  can confirm, please do. 
This nest was mentioned earlier by someone else as one a person said was 
an eagle nest.

At Harris Park I saw an osprey dive into the water. When it surfaced it  
just floated like,  in profile, actually looked like a gull. It sat on 
the water a few seconds but then began a delightful bathing routine, 
like a duck after mating, flapping its wings  dipping its head under 
the water. Twice it flew a few ft. above the water  then dove back down 
 under the water surface before finally flying off to the south.  
Nature is so wonderful, so full of unexpected surprises.

Gas on 89 near the state park was $3.60.9, lower by 9 cents than at 
Union Springs Lakeside Trading.

Meant to say the osprey nest was a smidgeon south of, not north of. Too 
tired!
