Caught a nice boat ride today before the clouds rolled in. Saw 3+ bald eagles - one on a crag on the cliffs below Bolton Point, a likely one flying at the same location maybe an immature bird, another in a crag below Lansing Station, and another in the bay just above Millikan. The latter gave us a good show diving for something on the lake surface a couple of hundred yards away. Ospreys were out in force as well, one on a utility post on the white pier at the foot of Cayuga, the two adults and immature birds on the nest at Salt Point, and one more above Millikan. Also saw a Black Crowned Night Heron in a tree in the bay just above Taughannock, 8 terns (Common?) on the red pier at the foot of the lake, and the usual Great Blue Herons, ducks, gulls, cormorants, and shorebirds.
