[cayugabirds-l] MZ Cattle Egrets
As of 2 pm I could find 3 surviving Cattle Egrets at Goose Haven on route 89 huddled between cattle and out on the snow. They flew to the horse farm on E. Tyre Road trying to find food in grass along plowed driveway. Hard to find so hopefully more surviving.

[cayugabirds-l] Pippits at Myers
Had a few minutes to spare during my holiday visit, so stopped at Myers Point. A flock of 8 pippits flew in, each calling as it arrived. I watched them work the shoreline for a while, well camouflaged among the pebbles. These were long-sought lifers for me!

[cayugabirds-l] Siena Drive screech-owl, Wed 11/23
The gray-morph EASTERN SCREECH-OWL is back in view in its cavity on Siena Drive in northeast Ithaca (Wednesday, 2:10 PM). Yesterday’s directions still apply (the right side of the fresher-looking one of two broken-off trunks about 13 feet tall, near the road in the woodlot about 27 yards south of the intersection of St. Catherine’s Circle and Siena Drive). But someone asked me for even more details, so here they are. * This location is across from the mailbox for 328 Siena Drive. * The owl is about four feet from the top of this dead trunk. * Here is a new checklist with a photo of the whole tree: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S32681829 * Yesterday, I returned and watched the owl fly out of the cavity at 5:03 PM.
