[cayugabirds-l] pair of pileated woodpeckers

2013-03-28 Thread David Smith
Wednesday a pair of pileated woodpeckers came for suet.  The suet 
baskets are located on opposite sides of a beech tree a few feet from 
the study window.  They flew off before I could take a photo. It is 
common to see either one of the pair, but very seldom are both seen.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Crows?

2010-12-16 Thread David Smith
Just for the record, Auburn is at the foot of Owasco Lake and Owasco 
Creek flows north.  Owasco Inlet starts in vicinity of Groton nd flows 
north to Owasco Lake.

 Large roosts of crows are famous. A few years ago, Auburn, NY, near 
 the upper reaches of Cayuga Lake, had to resort to drastic (but 
 non-violent) measures to rid the city of tens of thousands of them. 
 Maybe Ithaca has a reputation for being more crow friendly. Here we 
 have our own reverse pied piper in crow expert Kevin McGowan, who 
 will likely add his educated perspective to my unscientific babbling.

 They are using the slopes of south hill which lead down into 6 Mile 
 Creek and the neighborhoods bordering the creek area for the roost 
 these days (or nights, actually).

 This is only my second winter in Ithaca (I'm a grad student, here from 
 the southeast) so I don't really know how normal this is- but there 
 seem to be an ENORMOUS number of crows around downtown Ithaca and 
 Cornell- swirling at dusk, covering roofs, nearly toppling trees, 
 blotting out the sun, etc.

 Can someone in the know let me know what's going on? Are these all 
 birds passing through, or is there some sort of monumental attack on 
 the Lab of O in the works?

 Thanks,

 Andrew
