[cayugabirds-l] Wilson's Snipe

2021-03-21 Thread John Gregoire
Around 1600 (4 pm) We heard a snipe winnowing from the wet field next
door. It has been many years since we had Snipe here as most of the good
fields formerly wet were heavily drained and  hedgerows denuded in support
of factory level dairy farming. It's the 45th species of the year here.

[cayugabirds-l] Mockingbirds

2021-03-21 Thread Donna Lee Scott
On this lovely spring day I am being serenaded by a northern mockingbird 
singing for all its worth from atop the green-roofed barn at corner Sweazey Rd 
& NY Rt. 34-B, Lansing! Could be in small fruit tree there, too.

Another one is down the hill, toward lake, in Cornell orchard.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

2021-03-21 Thread Donna Lee Scott
Try throwing a lightweight blanket over it, if you can get near it. Then put in 
med. dog carrier.

Call cornell vet school & ask how to take to Janet Swanson wildlife clinic.

They were so close to West shore this time, that several came ashore & were 
eating grass on a small lawn south of Wolffy’s. Fun to see them so close by.

They (est. 40,000 by Suan Y. ) attracted quite a large # of hairless primate 
observers, too.
& a bit of a traffic jam.
