[cayugabirds-l] Amherst Is. wind project

2016-08-03 Thread Bill Evans
The Ontario  Environmental Review Tribunal released their finding today that 
the folks fighting the wind project on Amherst “did not prove that engaging in 
the project will cause serious harm to human health or serious and irreversible 
harm to plant life, animal life or the natural environment.”

The details of the decision can be found here:

This may be the last winter for the Cayuga Bird Club to visit Amherst Is. 
before 26 wind turbines are built.

[cayugabirds-l] next Montezuma trip Sun 7 Aug at *8* am

2016-08-03 Thread Dave Nutter
The Montezuma shorebird field trip next Sunday, August 7th, will be led by 
Steve & Linda Benedict of the Eaton Birding Sociaty and will meet at the 
Visitor Center at 8am. In cooperation with them I will be leading a trip from 
the East Road overlook onto the dikes at Knox-Marsellus and Puddler Marshes 
starting at 8:15am to allow people from the Visitor Center who choose this 
option to arrive. While the focus will be shorebirds, there are plenty of other 
neat birds around. If we refind the juvenile Yellow-crowned Night-Heron I hope 
to recognize it this time. As with previous trips, the plan is to cover 
multiple sites.
