[cayugabirds-l] Bald Eagle

2012-03-02 Thread bob garrison
While driving on NY 96, about 2 miles east of Spencer, a large bird swooped 
across above me at some 75 feet elevation. The very brief glimpse I had 
convinced me it was an adult bald eagle.

[cayugabirds-l] Western grebe

2012-02-14 Thread bob garrison
I too scanned the southern end of Cayuga Lake around mid-day Tue, using a 
telescope, but saw no Western grebe. Several small flocks of Canada geese took 
off from the lake and were heading south.
Is it normal for the lake to be so low this time of year?

Hi, 
 Thanks to Don and Suzanne, we now know where the young Peregrine came from. 
It's pretty exciting to think of its journey and that the people who were a 
part of it know he is safe and has survived this far. Thanks for following 
through with the information. I'm sure we'll all enjoy it! Diana Whiting

[cayugabirds-l] Worms Again

2010-03-02 Thread Bob Garrison
I am re-sending this posting; apparently it did not go through 2/28/10

Several of our birds enjoy meal worms. Apparently there are differing forms of 
worms available, e.g. freeze dried, live, etc. I'm wondering how many choices 
there are and which are best choices and why.
My main interest is to feed bluebirds and Carolina wrens.

We've had a Carolina wren feeding on meal worms from our tray feeder and next 
day, back again, looking into empty feeder. We did add some soon.
We've noticed gray squirrels like meal worms also.

[cayugabirds-l] OOB, Strange Bird

2009-09-24 Thread Bob Garrison
OOB: There was a strange bird high in a tree in my backyard in Spencer, on 
9/24; it moved around very little during the hour that I was watching. Through 
my telescope, it resembled a red-winged blackbird in terms of size, although 
the red patches on the side were considerably larger than those I've seen 
before on red-wings. The other puzzle was the distinctly forked tail, very long 
skinny forks sort of like those of a barn swallow. A second bird was nearby, 
but partially obscured by leaves.
I would appreciate any thoughts.
