RE: [cayugabirds-l] Mongo

I remember Mongo very well. He has been gone a long time, but I always think of him when I see a big domestic Mallard somewhere. A sudden demise could easily be attributed to a Red-tailed Hawk, a coyote, a fox, one of the many minks, or, perhaps, an angry beaver. Kevin From: bounce-70713059

PS: Here are four of the pictures - all in one file - around 9MB, FYI - may take a little while to load. Margaret took these of me feeding them. I miss the OLD Lab. We used to have SO much fun there! http://www.macosphere.com/~MingleTP/Temporary/MongoAndSpike1997.jpg --Terry ===

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Mongo

I have photos of him and his sidekick (the smaller Mallard) "Spike" - Margaret Barker and I used to feed them out of the side door of the old Lab of O. He mysteriously disappeared one day…I think he was getting a little too "friendly" for the liking of some. --Terry On Nov 6,

[cayugabirds-l] Mongo

Greetings Cayugabirders, This is a sentimental post for a large farm Mallard that was furtively released on the main pond at Sapsucker Woods back in the 1990s, when I was formally associate with the Lab of O when it was lodged in the old building with a staff of 50 or so. There were a few m

Still present when I left at 4:10pm as the sun went behind West Hill and the temperature dropped. The bird slowly worked its way back and forth several times along the length of the muddy lakeshore west of the northwest corner of the mowed loop path. It spun in the water for a couple minutes at one

[cayugabirds-l] Sapsucker Woods Redpoll

Hi all, Just a minute ago, there was a lone COMMON REDPOLL mixed in with the many PINE SISKINS at the feeders at the main entrance of the Lab. I had it for about a minute before it flew up over the windows. This is probably the same bird Tom had earlier. -Brad -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http:

[cayugabirds-l] Common Redpoll by north feeders at Lab

I just noticed a Common Redpoll perched near the north feeders at the Lab. I didn't see it join the siskins and goldfinches at the feeder, and now I've lost track of it completely o everything just flushed. But worth keeping eyes and ears open already for redpolls. tss -- Thomas S. Schulenberg R

[cayugabirds-l] Loon Watch - Nov 6th/Red Crossbills

Hi all, With the calm winds, it was considerably slower on the loon front. Total count this morning was 319 south (10 north) with a dozen or so sitting on the water. The second wave was virtually nonexistent, with no loons from Lake Ontario. The highlight this morning was four Red Crossbills th
