[cayugabirds-l] Eastern Bluebirds: bird garden pays off!

2011-12-03 Thread Marie P Read
HI all,

Over the past couple of days there have been 3-4 Eastern Bluebirds visiting my 
winterberry patch briefly. Today they stuck around long enough for me to sneak 
into the blind that I'd put nearby and get some shots. Also with them was a 
flock of Cedar Waxwings.

Here's a link to one of the bluebird photos, the amount of brown in this male's 
head and back, as well as the slightly shorter bill than typical, makes me 
think it is a young bird:

Truly a gift to have these birds in the yard in winter!

[cayugabirds-l] City Hall sharpie still hanging out

2011-12-03 Thread Karen Edelstein
The hawk Joe and I watched yesterday seems to have started roosting in
the yew bushes in front of City Hall, and is there again today. You
can get within about 6 feet comfortably for a great eye-level view.
