[cayugabirds-l] Quoth the raven

2013-08-17 Thread Nancy W. Dickinson
Never more- As I finished loading the car yesterday and took a last look at my beloved farm, the Mecklenburg raven circled low over the yard and croaked goodbye. I don't believe in "signs" but it seemed significant since the first bird I saw in our new yard in Maine, on top of a rocky hill, was

Finally got a chance to view K-M Marsh from East Rd in the evening. I was there from about 5 pm to 715 pm. The weather was perfect, light breeze, no bugs, and comfortable temperatures. There was no appreciable heat shimmer and the lighting was great. My focus was on shorebirds. Lesser and gre

Knox-Marsellus is still the hot place to go, but Tschache Pool had some nice views (Eagles, Osprey, Willow Flycatcher family, etc.) The Am White Pelican is still around the east end of the first pond. A few (3 or 4) Phalaropes (Red-necked?) are also towards the NW corner in the little "inlets".

2013-08-17 Thread Meena Madhav Haribal
Hi all, Last couple of days I have walked East Ithaca recreation way to work. It is comparatively quiet, but for common birds. Highlights of Thursday walks were a beautiful male RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD, feeding on Jewel weeds. An insistently calling PLIEATED WOODPECKER. There were many young
