[cayugabirds-l] Merlin - Help please

2017-03-29 Thread John Confer 
As many of you know, I have been following the nest success of local Merlins 
for the last two years. Thanks in large part to reports from subscribers to 
this list serve, I have been able monitor nesting success of 14 nests, which 
had about 50% nesting success. Great fun, and good information. I have provided 
summaries of the nest success to the list serve. I would like to do that again 
this year. If you know of any probable nesting area, would you please let me 
know of the location as precisely as you can, off-list at 
con...@ithaca.edu.

Thanks,

John Confer

[cayugabirds-l] Peregrine and Great Egret at Sapsucker Woods

2017-03-29 Thread Anne Marie Johnson 
This morning David Bonter discovered an immature Peregrine Falcon on the 
largest snag in the main pond at Sapsucker Woods. The Great Egret found 
yesterday is still there this morning, foraging along the edge of the pond 
farthest from the building. There also are two pairs of Wood Ducks on the 
farther pond and 3 Ring-necked Ducks on the pond right in front of the Visitor 
Center.
