Re: [cayugabirds-l] Redwing?

2023-07-23 Thread Richard Guthrie 
As you suspected, European Redwing is very rare anywhere in North America and especially so this time of year. But anything is possible. There have been other highly unlikely species found at other times and places. So it is always a good idea to follow up on reports like this to be sure that we are not missing a mega rarity in our backyard so to speak. Rich Guthrie ( currently in Cascadia)On Jul 23, 2023, at 4:46 PM, bob mcguire  wrote:I don’t see any current records - but this is interesting.https://ebird.org/checklist/S80316072BobOn Jul 23, 2023, at 7:38 PM, Carol Cedarholm  wrote:No definitely not.

[cayugabirds-l] Merlin nesting 2023 vs 2022

2023-07-23 Thread Karen 
Merlin Nesting Tabulation for 2023 vs. 2022 for Tompkins County


In 2022 the total was 15 pair vs.15 this year    Successful:  11 vs. 8 this 
year (counting one nest with downy young before it fledges)    Failed:  3 vs. 1 
this year  Known pair but no known nest: 1 vs. 6 this year


1035 Highland Rd. Nest abandoned.   But, a very late pair, called, mated, and 
established a nest about 900 m distant. I am tabulating these sites as the same 
pair. Beth and Geoff reported a few minutes ago that a downynestling was fed on 
23 July. This nest is by far the latest ever.
Brandywineand Simsbury Drives. No known nest. Pair seen frequentlyearly in 
season near potential nest. Disappeared.
 

Monroe St. and vicinity, Dryden. No known nest. Pairseen early in season. 
Disappeared.

 

Jenning’s Pond. No known nest. Pair seen mating,chasing crows early in season. 
Occasional report around Jennings Pond through20 June.

 

Myer’s Park. No known nest. Pairseen around a nest at park entrance early in 
season, and occasionally throughJune and July.

 

South Hill. No known nest. Pairseen calling, mating early in season.

 

Craft Way, Brook Way, Brook Dr.  No known nest. Pair mating, calling.

 
___
Fairmount/ElmwoodAves. Fledged, three young.
Freeville.Two young on nest as of 25 June. Two fledglings by 14 July.
Hanshawand Klinewood Rds. 25 June, Still incubating. 23 July, feeding at least 
onechick with downy head.
 

McLallaen and Washington Sts., Trumansburg.   Fledged, three young.

 

Sycamore Dr. x Pinewood Pl. Fledged at least two young.

 

The Parkway near elementary school. Fledged at least twoyoung, probably three.

 

Top Forty Rd.  Threeolder nestlings as of 25 June. Fledged by mid-July

 

Valley View Rd. Three nestlings as of 25 June.



 
Gimme Coffee. Nest failed.
With hundreds of Merlin reports to eBird, and thousands of reports that did not 
detect Merlin, I think our survey in Tompkins County is fairly complete.

Thanks ever so much for the continued help of so many in documenting the Merlin 
population of Tompkins County.
Jeff, please forward to your friends, thanks.
