[cayugabirds-l] Immature Bald Eagle in Trumansburg (Schuyler County)

2022-11-04 Thread Annette Nadeau
Much to my surprise, an immature Bald Eagle just flew toward my home on
Rumsey Road, Trumansburg, from the east and flew very low over the field
across the road for several minutes. An adult Red-tailed Hawk harassed the
eagle until the eagle landed on the ground. The hawk then perched in a
nearby tree to keep an eye on the situation. There's a slight dip in the
field, which is where the eagle landed, so I can no longer see it.
The light from the setting sun was perfect for seeing field marks, and I
could easily see the enormous bill and that the talons were lowered in
flight. There may be an animal carcass in the field that the hawk and eagle
both want.
What a thrilling way to end a beautiful November day.

[cayugabirds-l] (off-topic) hearing aids for birding

2022-11-04 Thread sarah fern
Hello all,

Does anyone use ordinary hearing aids to help hear birdsong?  Please
ahare your experiences with me. I hope to find a good pair of hearing aids
that can have 2 programs; one enhancing speech and one specifically to help
me hear the birds again.

Please feel free to contact me off-list fernsara...@gmail.com

Thank you very much.

Sarah
