[cayugabirds-l] Red-winged Blackbirds
Hi all, As I was waiting for the bus at BTI, Veronique and I had two Red-winged Blackbirds fly overhead from northwest to southeast around 4.50 pm. Again another 15 minutes later I saw one more at the junction of Pine Tree road and Snyder Hill road. It was so nice to see them.

[cayugabirds-l] Red-winged Blackbirds
Hi All, Just had 14 Red-winged Blackbirds (all males, but in various examples of transitional plumage) show up at my feeders at 1504 Hanshaw Road, Ithaca as of 1pm. I suspect the Lab’s feeders will be swamped with them soon if they are not already. Has early March arrived in late February? Good Birding Jody W.

[cayugabirds-l] Red-winged Blackbirds in Canoga
Yesterday (2/22) I also saw my first RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS of the year, a flock which eventually added up to about 50 in an overgrown hedgerow on the west side of NYS-89 just south of Parker Rd in Canoga (town of Fayette, Seneca County), between a field of standing corn and a log cabin with a large yard. Some birds went to the back of the cabin where I assume there were feeders, but most were staying deep within the hedgerow. I didn't see if they were also in the corn. --Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

Susie I were at the Observation Tower at the Visitor Center at MNWR this evening at 1800. The din of RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS was a welcome Spring tonic.

[cayugabirds-l] red winged blackbirds
Hi All - Yesterday all the usual feeder birds were busy at my feeders. Of course many more Goldfinch Chickadees than when I needed them for the GBYBC. Then Yesterday afternoon 3 Red-winged Blackbirds came to the suet cake and ate about half of it. They ignored the sunflower tube right near. My DE Junco's are no longer ground feeders only. They are at the hanging suet cake as well as the large tube feeder. That has a small ledge and is filled with cracked corn, sunflower seeds and nijer seeds. Naomi Brewer Wyers Pt. Rd.

In addition to these, the flowing field across from our house has had 3 female RWBB (for those who keep track of such things, like me), 3 KILLDEER, and one each male and female RUSTY BLACKBIRD in breeding (alternate) plumage.

Hi all, Just now from my office window I watched a small flock of Red-winged Blackbirds. They were actually seeming to head towards west in this snowy weather. Yesterday, at Myers I was trying a video camera for its sharpness and range for a an upcoming project, when I saw two Killdeer at the spit. I actually did not even the scan the lake, I don't know why. I was planning on doing it, but it started to rain, so I packed up.

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Red Winged Blackbirds/Grackles
Hi, For the first time in the 20 yrs we have been here, our yard with its two modest feeders has transformed into a set from The Birds - over a hundred grackles, RW blackbirds, and a few starlings have taken over the feeders, driving away the usual titmice, nuthatches, chickadees, goldfinches, cardinals, sparrows, juncos woodpeckers - even the RB hairy woodpeckers spent the afternoon hovering on the outskirts rather than challenge the masses of blackbirds. I know the other birds won't starve - they have been stashing as much as they've eaten all winter - but I am too cheap to be willing to feed this army of blackbirds! Will they be able to open black oil sunflower seed if I convert both feeders to that for awhile? Or is the only solution to stop feeding for awhile? They aren't interested in the small nyger feeder that's off to the side but, then again, neither are most of the regular feeder birds! Thanks for any suggestions - Alicia On 3/6/2011 5:32 PM, Donna Scott wrote: Along with all my other feeder birds on this snowy day, there are ~ 2-300 Red Winged Blackbirds and a dozen or so Grackles here at my feeder areas (along with 33 C.
