[cayugabirds-l] Montezuma Today
Diane, Ken, and I took part in the Montezuma waterfowl count this morning. Our territory was Knox-Marsellus and Puddlers Marsh. Both areas were entirely ice-free and harbored a large number of birds. Several thousand Snow Geese took off from K-M as we arrived and flew north into the Mucklands. What remained was a good selection: Mallards and Black Ducks, Northern Pintail, Green-winged Teal and Northern Shovelers, Gadwall, American Wigeon and a single EURASIAN WIGEON. Also a dozen Tundra Swans, two Hooded Mergansers and a single Wood Duck. None of the counters reported Sandhill Cranes. One of them had a single Common Loon at Kip’s Marsh. On the way home we noted hundreds (if not thousands) of Tundra Swans in the water north of the RR tracks - and a huge flock of diving ducks at the north end of the lake, out from Harris Park in the Village of Cayuga.

[cayugabirds-l] Song Sparrow
Yesterday morning and Song Sparrow was singing in my yard here on Burns Road in Brooktondale. In the evening a flock of 50-60 Red-winged Blackbirds flew over, quite high, headed north. This morning I've had several Grackles coming to one of my feeders.

[cayugabirds-l] Field Trip this Sunday
This Sunday I'll be leading a Cayuga Bird Club field trip up the lake. We'll meet 8am in the Lab of O parking lot, and plan to return by 4 or 5. Don't be fooled by this week's 60's temps: winter will be returning Sunday (30's and moderately windy), so dress warm. We'll make pit stops along the way for food and warmth. As of now, the plan is to see if any of the snowy owls are still around (starting with the one on Indian Field Road), and see if the snow geese are gathering at the mucklands. We may also look for the gyrfalcon, depending on interest and time.
