Some friends and I had a great day of birding yesterday. Our itinerary included Stewart Park, East Shore Park, a shrike search, Ladoga and Myers point, a quest for winter field birds, the Wells College boathouse and the bluffs to the south, the ponds and Frontenac Park in Union Springs, and
A couple of additions to Dave's list of Saturday birding:
LAPLAND LONGSPUR (seen by a few - not all - of us) in a flock of some
200 Snow Buntings/ Horned Larks at the corner of Davis Jerry Smith
Rds, lansing.
SNOW BUNTING several flocks. one along Lansingville Rd just south of
Davis Rd.
It should be noted that a hunt club in the King Ferry area gets released
pheasants. Several yrs. ago I found one with a cheepie leg band that had been
hit killed by a car. I took it to a conservation office in Cortland was
told Cornell provided the birds for the club.
