[cayugabirds-l] Montezuma visitor center shorebirds
The Montezuma visitor center pool has nice habitat at the moment and is littered with shorebirds, including 75 LEAST SANDPIPERS, dozens of both yellowlegs, 2 PECTORAL SANDPIPERS, 1 DUNLIN, and a transitional but mostly alternate STILT SANDPIPER, always a rare bird in the spring.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Montezuma Visitor Center
Ann and all. A week ago I visited 8 eagle nests in the northern part of our "range" (ranging from west to Geneva to east to the refuge and south to Aurora, NY). We found eagles on 7 of the 8 nests. Today I visited the only nest that had no eagles on or near it the day we monitored (Packwood Rd. a bit east and north of Geneva, NY) and found both birds in the nest! So we have 8 for 8 (not to mention the two nests on a part of the Refuge we're not normally allowed on.) I hope these birds have LOTS of little ones!!!

Shorebirds included one Dunlin, one Pectoral Sandpiper, one Lesser Yellowlegs, and at least three Killdeer. Two Wilson's Snipe were also nearby. The Pectoral Sandpiper and Dunlin stayed close together.

Highlights from an hour around the visitor center at Montezuma were two LESSER YELLOWLEGS on the mudflats, a NORTHERN ROUGH-WINGED SWALLOW with Tree Swallows over the water, and a calling RING-NECKED PHEASANT from back towards the Seneca Trail. Someone saw a Purple Martin checking out the still-lowered houses this morning too.
