[cayugabirds-l] Robins
I do Wednesday night Raptor Survey at Montezuma. We have been seeing large numbers of robins the last few weeks. Last week from my survey spot on Morgan Rd. I counted over 200 going to roost. At my home in Ontario County I have had about 30 in my hedgerow and bird feeding garden all winter. They are still feasting on Mountain Ash berries and Winterberry in my garden.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Robins
In early January there were scores of American Robins along Lake Road near Long Point State Park in the Town of Ledyard. They eat the cedar berries. I've seen groups of Robins in such fruited woodsy areas all winter, but it does seem that recently there have been more of them in other places, flying about, and on exposed lawns. I wonder how many are the local winter woods birds fanning out and how many are an early spring influx.--Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics Rules and Information Subscribe, Configuration and Leave Archives: The Mail Archive Surfbirds BirdingOnThe.Net Please submit your observations to eBird! --

I saw my first 2 robins on Connecticut Hill yesterday, high in a tree, golden in the setting sun. Dave G.

[cayugabirds-l] CBC Field Trip Saturday
FYI, I'll be leading a field trip this Saturday (3/1). We'll meet at 8am at the lab parking lot, and plan to be back around 2pm. Forecast says cold and windy, so dress for cold and windy :-D. Likely destinations are along the lake up to Aurora, possibly Union Springs, and maybe the Indian Field area for Snowys etc. All are welcome. FMI, email or call me at 607-351-9334. Suan PS. Last Sunday at SSW the first wooded area of Wilson Trail North hosted an unending supply of Robins chattering away -- I'd guesstimate several hundreds -- all within a relatively small area. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Book talk with Harry Greene: Tracks and Shadows, March 6
Of potential interest to subscribers to this list who live in the Ithaca area. Feel free to forward to anyone who might be interested in this talk. --Marty Tracks and Shadows: Field Biology as Art Book talk by Harry W. Greene Thursday, March 6, 4:00 pm Stern Seminar Room, 160 Mann Library Harry Greene's new book Tracks and Shadows: Field Biology as Art (University of California Press; October 2013) is not only about the making of a field biologist, but an eccentric mediation on natural history. Both an absorbing autobiography and a celebration of the beauty in nature, the book explores multiple themes including the destruction of habitat and loss of biodiversity, the nuts and bolts of field research and teaching, how natural historians help save species from extinction, and the sheer poetry of field biology. Greene is professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at Cornell University and a Stephen H. Weiss Presidential Fellow. Other publications include the award winning book Snakes: The Evolution of Mystery in Nature. His books promote biological diversity, ecology, behavior and conservation-the core components of scientific literacy. Light refreshments will be available throughout the event, and books will be available for purchase and signing. Mann Library is located off of Tower Road on the Cornell University Ag Quad.
