Hi all,
I was curious to know if anyone has seen the wintering Red-shouldered hawk
this season. It usually arrives around in November.
Cheers

More Snow Geese are passing south out of the basin on this morning's brisk
tail wind. I don't expect to see them circle back. There's relatively little
agricultural land south of here, and it's all buried in snow.

Last night about 1015pm as I was shoveling my sidewalk one last time before
going to bed, I heard geese overhead. They were fairly low, and not
particularly going south. I don't know why they were wandering around in the
low clouds lit up by Ithaca's street lights. Mostly they were Canadas, but I
also heard a group of SNOW GEESE, so we now at least have that species for
count week in case they all depart before Tuesday.

Mixed flocks streamed over Candor all morning, hard to see sometimes
as they flew higher than the snow.

Hi all,
I too heard Canada Geese around 2.00 am at night. After reading Geo's post, I
looked out for geese from my house and did not find any at all.
Day before yesterday (Friday) after Dave's post about Snow Geese downtown, I
went to look for them and not a single I could find. But I did find lots of
Canada on water, including all the birds Dave reported earlier.
Then I went in search of some winter birds. On Lake Ridge road, I found
hundreds of DE Juncos, Tree sparrows and a Mockingbird feeding on the road. I
did not get chance to scan them for other species of sparrows as they were
