In yesterday's snowstorm I heard and then saw 18 Tundra Swans flying quite
low, traveling northwest over Boiceville Rd in Brooktondale. It looked like
they were seeking shelter in the storm and could possibly have ended up in
southern Cayuga Lake.

Dear all,
I hope it's ok to ask for ID help here. Between Sibley and the Lab of O's
bird call recordings, I haven't been able to get a decent ID on a bird
heard last night.
The call was a long (1-2 s) descending *clear* whistle (not a whinny like a
typical Eastern Screech Owl), starting on a
Hello, just now (9 PM) I heard a single woodcock making his "peent" call in
the marshy woods behind my cottage in the Boiceville Cottages in
Brooktondale.

Friday around noon I saw and heard five TUNDRA SWANS flying north along the
shore of Cayuga Lake. I saw them from Taughannock Park, on the west shore
of the lake. I did not see where they landed. There were also quite a few
REDHEAD and COMMON MERGANSER still present.
