[cayugabirds-l] Sanderling, Myers Point

2015-09-30 Thread Jay McGowan
For anyone who missed them earlier in the season, a juvenile SANDERLING is
foraging near the end of the spit at Myers Point. Also several flocks of
NORTHERN PINTAIL going down the lake and a group of 16 TERNS, mostly COMMON
with at least one FORSTER'S, just went by heading north.

RE:[cayugabirds-l] Hurricane Joaquin

2015-09-30 Thread Kevin J. McGowan
Chris,

Thanks for the heads-up. Remember, all the good birds are on the east side of 
these storms, so we want it to pass to our west. If it stays to the east, all 
we get are heavy rains. The forecast at 
http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at1.shtml?5-daynl#contents makes it look iffy 
for us.

Best,

Kevin

Just a heads-up...

I happened to check some of my weather references for the coming week and 
noticed that Tropical Storm Joaquin, currently just East of the Bahamas, is 
forecast to make landfall around the Delmarva Peninsula or Cape May, NJ areas 
as a Category 2 Hurricane (976mb) around 8am Sunday morning (10/4). This system 
will then weaken to a Category 1 Hurricane (992mb) as it moves North through 
central New York, just East of the Finger Lakes Region, on Monday morning 
(10/5) through midnight Monday night and gradually drifting Northeast through 
Tuesday and departing by Wednesday morning (10/7).

Be prepared and have a watchful eye for unexpected and typically pelagic 
seabirds on sizable lakes anytime Monday through Wednesday (10/5-10/7) and on 
the days following the departure of this system from our area, as birds filter 
from Lake Ontario back toward the ocean (10/7-10/9).

The only caveat with this alert is that this is a forecast, and forecasts 
change - especially forecasts greater than a few days out. So, everything 
mentioned above is purely meant as a heads-up to check your favorite weather 
forecast site for more information as Tropical Storm Joaquin develops into a 
Hurricane and heads our way.

Good luck and good birding!!

Sincerely
Chris T-H

[cayugabirds-l] Thrush flight Wed 7:30 PM

2015-09-30 Thread Mark Chao
Many dozens of calling thrushes are passing southbound over Ithaca at 7:30
PM.  We have been hearing mostly Swainson’s Thrushes, but also at least six
Gray-cheeked Thrushes just in the last five minutes.
