Re: [cayugabirds-l] All male Ospreys now?

This morning at Salt Point one bird was atop the platform at the point, making frequent forays to collect sticks - fun to watch it grab at branches while flying past a tree but fail to snap it off. After a break, it flew in the direction of the railway bridge over Salmon Creek, and when I walked

Re: [cayugabirds-l] All male Ospreys now?

This morning an Osprey on the Union field light pole swooped down to the grass, appeared to grab something tiny, alight back on the pole, then swoop down again and appear to grab something invisible to me, and go back up onto the pole. The pole was swaying a bit in the wind. On Mar 29, 2023,

[cayugabirds-l] All male Ospreys now?

It’s possible that the 2 Ospreys atop the Union Fields nest were males glowering at each other or enjoying social time until the females arrive. One Osprey was on that nest this afternoon. I couldn’t check all the possible perches among other light arrays for a second bird. Today at Allan

I saw the Snow Goose a little before 2pm and a little after 6pm in the same area. It has been grazing and looks alert and healthy. I agree it is unusual to have a wild goose in such a busily populated place, but the rowing crews, the drivers, and most of the pedestrians ignore it, so the bird

Re Dave Nutter's Post re Osprey I think that male Ospreys come north first and prepare a nest. The females come later. Gloria Sage On 3/29/23 12:01 AM, Upstate NY Birding digest wrote: CAYUGABIRDS-L Digest for Wednesday, March 29, 2023. 1. FOY Osprey 2. RE: FOY Osprey 3. RE: FOY Osprey 4.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Goose

I just got back from Cass Park and saw the lone snow goose about 10 minutes ago (and 1 3/4 hours ago in a similar location) in the grass on the inlet side not far past the Childrens' Garden. I agree that it looks healthy and is walking in the grass nibbling, but it seems odd to see it there

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Goose

There was a lone Snow Goose strolling along the daffodil part of the Waterfront Trail just south of Cass Park Rink this morning. It seemed healthy although I didn't see it fly. I circled back around after a tour of three occupied Osprey nests and it was gone. Elaina -- Cayugabirds-L List

Yes, they are returning! Yesterday, I saw one on the platform perch out behind All Saints church. Spring always wins! On Wed, Mar 29, 2023 at 10:23 AM Donna Lee Scott wrote: > Osprey photographed by Robert Rieger atop an electric pole at Salt Point > this morning. > > Donna Scott > Kendal at

RE: [cayugabirds-l] FOY Osprey

There was a single Osprey on the Myer’s Hill nest in Lansing this morning when I drove by. It wasn’t there yesterday for my commute, but it could have arrived later in the day and I would have missed it. But it’s there now, and I was glad to see it. Robyn Bailey From: Dave Nutter Sent:
