Hi all,

This is a head’s up that the Dryden Conservation Board is considering
removing the dam at Dryden Lake. It’s leaking and needs to be
repaired/replaced. Somebody said they should just take it out and
“free the rivers,” and it’s being considered.
This morning (21 Nov) from the NW end of the NYS-89 bridge over the Flood
Control Channel I watched for loons for 3 hours starting 15 minutes before
sunrise. The temperature was in the 40sF, the NW wind was not too strong, the
sky was mostly cloudy, and there were quite a few loons, all of which
When I first saw this bird it was head first and had a Yellow/green hue.
That color is not very pronounced in the pics but can be seen on the throat.
Looked at alot of Junco pics without a good match.
Maybe a late nesting immature?
Seen today on the West side of Hoster near the end of the pine row
Hi

I arrived at the NE corner of the south portion of Taughannock Park, began
counting loons at 6:50, and left at 8:40 when the number of migrating loons
dropped to three in the final 15 minute period. In total, I had 169 Common
Loons flying south and 3 flying north. The morning began at 42 degrees
Hi all,
The Red-throated Loon is still present on Dryden Lake, along with several
Hooded and Common Mergansers.

I observed 2 loons at 7:31 AM on a heading of 150* SSW from my location on
Park Hill Road in the Town of Erin. The site is at 1840’ elevation with an
open sky view following the Wyncoop Creek valley towards Chemung. I think
there is a good chance these birds started their day on Seneca Lake. Wes

I went to Myers at about 8:45 this morning in the hope of seeing some loons fly
by. The first thing I noticed however was a hooting coming from across the
creek in Salt Point. It sounded just like a classic Northern Saw-whet Owl
except that the hoots were a fair bit longer. It only lasted about
Once upon a time I was sitting of my front porch reading the paper. I noticed
a chickadee coming in. Not moving the paper I felt the bird land near my foot.
It felt it do something around my foot, and then it flew off. Upon inspection
I found a black oil seed neatly tucked into my shoe. I r
