Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

This happened w/NYSEG here before leaf-out in spring. Also Tn of Lansing did along Lansing Station /Algerine/Bill George Roads before leaf-out. So ok for birds here, but bad where you all are! Donna Scott Sent from my iPhone On Jun 8, 2018, at 10:09 AM, Poppy Singer

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

I just sent NYSEG the following email: "I am hearing from others in Tompkins County that clear cutting/brush hogging under powerlines is currently being done in the area. I want to stress that this is entirely the WRONG time of year to do this! There are numerous birds nesting in the utility

Marie, Thank you. I also just sent them an email. If anyone else would like to send NYSEG a note, here is their “contact us by email” page: https://www.nyseg.com/WritetoNYSEG.html They also have a Facebook page and it might be worthwhile for some of us to post messages there. I found this

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

The powerlines from Warren Road to Dankert Park were also brush hogged and cleared of similarly dense growth—many birds along there. About 10 days ago. Anne Anne B Clark 147 Hile School Rd Freeville, NY 13068 607-222-0905 anneb.cl...@gmail.com > On Jun 8, 2018, at 9:28 AM, Karen Edelstein

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

I recently received a postcard from nyseg saying that it will be soon happening at my place in Brooktondale. I called to speak to the supervisor for my area to express my concern. He said they wouldn’t be getting to my road till August. But I have been seeing it happening elsewhere. Others might

[cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

I was dismayed to see that NYSEG has been clearcutting/brush-hogging vegetation down to bare ground under the powerlines on Salmon Creek Rd. With the nesting season still well in process, I'm very concerned about the probable mortality of birds that has resulted in this area of (formerly) dense

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

Our summer garden at our cottage was completely clear-cutearly this winter. Low-growthlilacs, honeysuckle, witch hazel, Japanese maples with a likely mature heightof 12’, and other very small trees were sliced off at the ground. My five bird feeders were removed andleft on our front steps.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

We pretty much live in the woods but have planted a lot of bird-attracting perennials in the opening around our house, which also hosts NYSEG lines.  Years ago NYSEG left a card on our door saying that they would be 'tree trimming' soon and to contact them if we wanted to be notified of the

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

Sounds familiar. We had this battle with NYSEG several years ago when they were planning to do Rock Cabin Road next to Queen Catharine Marsh. Many meetings and emails later and we managed to stop them from using the aquatic approved version of glyphosate entirely and forged an agreement for them

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Clear cutting under powerlines

Wow. I'm so sorry that happened to you. What a shoddy way of doing business. It's not like they can replace the time it took to put that garden into place. .. On Fri, Jun 8, 2018, 7:24 PM Carol Schmitt wrote: > Our summer garden at our cottage was completely *clear-cut* early this > winter.

[cayugabirds-l] Black terns

Hi all, During an Audubon van tour yesterday, 6/7, we observed several black terns swooping and feeding above the water at the "Crane Unit" on the end of VanDyne Spoor Rd in Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. I didn't know immediately what they were, and was happy to add them to my life list!
