Re: [cayugabirds-l] Possible Golden Eagle Over Aurora

[Richard Burlew]

We were on the beach near Trumansburg this afternoon (about 4:00) when a 
very low flying adult Bald Eagle flew directly over us heading toward 
Ithaca.  Did not see a Golden Eagle.

[cayugabirds-l] Possible Golden Eagle Over Aurora

[William Roberts]

I spotted what looked like an adult Golden Eagle flying at 200-300 feet and 
going south over Aurora about 30 minutes ago. Ithaca birders might be able to 
confirm or disprove the sighting if the bird stays on its course. I did not see 
any mottled feathering. Good luck. Bill

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods and Cornell Community Gardens, Sat 9/22

[Mark Chao]

This morning I figured that the birds in Sapsucker Woods would be most
readily found in the deepest woods, sheltered from the high wind.  So I
walked around the East Trail.  I did find a fair variety of migrant
songbirds, including BLACKPOLL, BLACK-THROATED GREEN (4+), BLACK-THROATED
BLUE, MAGNOLIA, and BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLER, plus a singing BLUE-HEADED
VIREO and an EASTERN WOOD-PEWEE.  I also saw a RUFFED GROUSE by the
Woodleton Boardwalk - I think only the third or fourth I've ever found in
the sanctuary.

 

Then I spent 20 minutes at the Cornell Community Gardens along Freese Road.
I hoped that I might find Song Sparrows and LINCOLN'S SPARROW in roughly the
same proportions as Jay,  Scott, and Brad found the other day.  And I did -
not in absolute numbers of 60:4, but about 15 Song Sparrows to one Lincoln's
(northeast corner).
