I also had an/the adult BALD EAGLE fly south by the Farmers' Market a short time later. I've seen single adult Bald Eagles frequently this spring. During the winter I frequently saw a pair. I'm thinking this could be a male out getting food while a female is on a nearby nest. Anyone have a

This morning (19 April) about 11am I was scoping from the white lighthouse jetty and saw an OSPREY carrying a fish over Cayuga Heights. I followed its slow northward flight against a light wind almost to Portland Point where I lost it against trees as it began to descend, or perhaps it was j

Last fall I was surprised to see a Pileated Woodpecker flying in large circles about five feet above the ground in front of the A. D. White House. It repeatedly came within ten feet or so of the sidewalks busy with human traffic. A couple of weeks ago I managed to sneak up on a Pileated Woodpe

Meena’s comments on pileated woodpeckers in suburban and urban areas reminded me that I found one (vocalizing frequently) in a tree in a parking lot next to Risley Hall on the Cornell campus one morning during spring break, probably March 24. (Risley is just north of the Thurston Ave. bridge ov

I did a short walk from 730-8am on Wilson looping back toward Fuller. 10' from the gate, a YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER M in full breeding colors and singing heartily in a bush 8' away. Beautiful in the rising sun! 30' further down the trail, one of the MINKs ran by me along the edge of the pond. So
