[cayugabirds-l] Rusty Blackbird, Sapsucker Woods

2016-01-22 Thread Jay McGowan
A RUSTY BLACKBIRD was at the front feeders at the Lab of Ornithology a few minutes ago. It is now perched in a tree over the feeders, giving call notes and occasionally song fragments. A PINE SISKIN and some BROWN-HEADED COWBIRDS have also been seen here this morning. Jay -- Jay McGowan

Last week I drove all the way up to Lake Como to get my first cowbird of the year. And just now I had a flock of 20 on the platform feeder here at home! Bob McGuire -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES
