Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese, Halseyville Rd

[Nancy Tonachel Gabriel]

East side, between Mekeel and Swamp College Rds, a few dozen I’d say landing 
and feeding in a field (winter grain?) that’s beginning to green up.

And yesterday, I saw a flock of hundreds heading southeast over Sheffield Road.

Today, I saw a flock of a few hundred over Sheffield Road and heading southwest.

It has been an interesting day for geese.  Had a flock (I assume the same one) 
fly over our house in Lansing about 5 times this morning.   Wondering if they 
were trying to go to Myers area and deciding against it but couldn't find 
anything they liked off the lake.

Had a couple hundred snow geese and a couple separate flocks of Canadas near 
Trumansburg.  Snow Geese headed north and Canada flocks headed south. The first 
flock of Canadas were still jostling for position as they flew over.

There have been steady flocks of snow geese moving around overhead here
above Maplewood Pt (Duboise Rd). I can only hear them with the low
cloud/snow. Hundreds to thousands I would guess.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese

[Deb Grantham]

On Thursday, I saw a flock of several thousand snow geese, circled over Iradell 
Road, Trumansburg a couple of times before heading off north.

On Friday, from my place on Sheffield Road, Ithaca (west of Ithaca, 
Ithaca/Enfield townline), I saw several hundreds rise up just above the tree 
line to the east so I assume they were on the lake and flew up and then flew 
down out of sight.

And yesterday, I saw a flock of hundreds heading southeast over Sheffield Road.

Today, I saw a flock of a few hundred over Sheffield Road and heading southwest.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese over Lansing NY this s morning

[Patrick L. McDonough]

Hello All and Happy New Year!
On the early morning walk today I saw 100's of Snow Geese flying northwest over 
the Lake and Lansing. I posted a photo and video on my Instagram page 
(@patlmcd) if you would like to see them; I have never seen this many flying 
overhead.
Have a great day and get ready for the snow this weekend, too.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese on Cayuga Lake

[Marty Schlabach]

Driving south bound on rt 89 along the west side of Cayuga Lake just before 
dark, we saw a very large raft of snow geese out in the middle of the lake.  It 
extended from a bit north of where Romulus-Varick Townline Rd meets rt 89 south 
to Deans Cove.

And when we got home, we were hearing snow geese overhead as well.

Best,
Marty

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

I just flew out of Syracuse through Philadelphia, and passed over the tops
of Skaneateles, Owasco, and Cayuga Lakes. There were rafts of snow geese in
the middles of Owasco and Skaneateles Lakes.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese etc

[Suan Yong]

Around noon today we saw from Union Springs a large continuum of skeins across 
the lake land towards the opposite shore - we think - which according to google 
maps would be offshore from Canoga where there is no public access. When we 
drove back south around 2:30, we saw a few "small" islands of snow geese not 
too far offshore, between Dean's Cove and Thirsty Owl; we were in a hurry then 
so did not stop to investigate further.

Other highlights of our trip including the most cooperative snow bunting ever 
on Davis road, perched on a bush right by the road where we pulled over and 
staying out for fantastic naked eye looks by everyone before we got out of the 
van. We saw a few more small flocks of snow buntings and horned larks 
throughout the day, including on the west side of the lake coming down. A pair 
of merlins were at Frontenac park in Union springs as well. Good variety of 
waterfowl at factory street pond as well as at the MNWR visitor center where 
four sandhill were a big hit, especially when they started dancing.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Wes Blauvelt]

Yesterday evening I had a count of +7,000 SNGO just west of the refuge at
sunset.  Many settled into a corn stubble field near me only to erupt into
a cacophony of sound and panicked flight following a volley of gunshots.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Duane]

I had a larger raft on the water north of Taughannock this morning plus a
large flyover flock heading north.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Suan Yong]

I was just at Aurora where I could barely make out a "small" (~1-2k?) island of 
snow geese in the distance, slightly south of due west. I suspect this is one 
of the islands Geo saw from the other side, and I believe it is located in the 
middle of the lake at the widest point of the lake, pretty much as far away 
from shore than they can get. This has been a popular spot to raft in past 
years, distantly visible from Dean's Cove against the backdrop of Aurora's 
pretty buildings, where they look to be closer to the east shore when in fact 
they probably aren't.

Did not encounter any bigger flocks, just a few small high flyover groups. 
Visitor Center pool was thinly frozen over and hosting Canada geese, pintails, 
and green-winged teals, with three Sandhill Cranes joined by three others for a 
bit before three departed. It was fun watching them all negotiate the ice, with 
some nice long slidey landings by pintails. We'll see if any of my videos turn 
out watchable.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Alyssa Johnson]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been out in the Complex the last 2 afternoons. Most of the marshes, 
including the muck flats along 31 are frozen still. I found a large flock 
(approximately 100,000) on Gravel Road behind the Tyre Municipality Building 
yesterday about 5 pm. Carncross Road was good for swans (several hundred likely 
mostly Tundra based on what I was hearing), and thousands of ducks including 
Northern Pintail, Mallard, American Black Ducks, American Wigeon… maybe more. 
On the south side of the road, a lot of that closest field was open. I could 
see beyond there must have been holes in the ice here and there where the birds 
were concentrating, but most of it is not easy to view because of distance and 
vegetation. I didn’t get to Morgan Rd, but I’m guessing the units between the 
parking lot and river are mostly frozen still. That’s been a good spot in years 
past for eagles on the ice and divers. I also didn’t make it to VanDyne Spoor 
Rd, but guessing similar conditions. 

To anyone who isn’t familiar with Carncross and VanDyne Spoor Roads, they are 
seasonally maintained. So the last 2 days they were a little slushy and muddy 
but I made it fine. After tonight/tomorrow, I wouldn’t risk it personally. When 
I worked at Montezuma, occasionally I’d answer a call of “help! come save me” 
and all I could do was suggest Reed’s Towing. 

I am about to drive the entire west side of Cayuga to see if I can find the 
snow goose ice burg I expect is floating out there. If the marshes stay frozen, 
the geese will likely continue to stage in “smaller” groups in ag fields and on 
the lake then move on. But if the marshes melt, especially along Route 31, I 
bet they will dump in there and stage in numbers north of 500k. Last year it 
was estimated at the muck flats, at one time, 600-800,000 snow geese, 3000 
tundras, and tens of thousands of ducks!

Final thought- if anyone is interested in a guided tour, I just started working 
through Airbnb as an “Experience Host”!  I don’t want to overstep and self 
promote too much here, but if you email me privately, I’d be happy to share 
more information about how that works and my availability.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

Hi Sandy,

There are some big rafts of Snow Geese in Aurora Bay,  SE of Dean’s Cove. Can’t 
see any at Cayuga Lake State Park where I’m now walking with my dog…

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Sandy Podulka]

Anyone been to the Savannah Mucklands or by Cayuga Lake State Park 
the last couple of days?  Are there lots of Tundra Swans and/or Snow 
Geese?  Looking back on my notes, the next two weeks seem to be the 
peak time for them here, but with the odd weather, who knows?

[cayugabirds-l] snow geese and black birds and more

[Deb Grantham]

Yesterday afternoon, I watched as clouds and clouds of snow geese descended 
across Route 79, going from north to south, and appeared to land in ag fields. 
I think there were thousands, but there was no way to count but the process 
went on for 10 minutes or more. I was watching from Sheffield Road, 
Ithaca/Enfield town line. I drove around but never could find the fields they 
may have landed in.

This morning, I watched a stream of black birds cross my property from the east 
and cross Sheffield Road to land across the street in the horse farm there. 
There were dozens in any cross section you might cut through the stream and it 
went on for over 5 minutes. I clearly saw a good proportion of grackles, could 
see their tails. I saw some smaller, compact birds that could have been 
cowbirds. But other than the grackle tails, I couldn't see anything well enough 
to identify species.

One interesting point was that a home fuel oil truck drove past and when it 
went under the stream of birds, they were clearly buffeted by the turbulence. 
They were about 15 or 20 feet above the truck.

And I saw 7 bluebirds in my yard today.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese flying

[Todd Beeton]

I saw hundreds (if not more?) flying North yesterday afternoon, visible
driving east toward Geneva on 5 and 20. It was an amazing sight. It was
late in the afternoon, just before sundown.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese flying

[Evelyn Weinstein]

The snow geese that I also saw today were up along Rt 89 not far from
Wolffy's Grill and there must have been closer to 50,000 between those
rafting on the lake and those flying overhead! Amazing!

[cayugabirds-l] snow geese flying

[Deb Grantham]

This afternoon, between 4:30 and 5:30 pm, I saw thousands of snow geese flying 
south, group after group. I estimate 2,000 to 4,000 but it was extremely 
difficult to count!

This was from Sheffield Road, the Ithaca/Enfield town line and about ¼ mile 
north of Rt. 79.

I also quite a few Vs of Canada geese that were circling or doing a 180, hard 
to tell, I think they were mostly heading south/south-east. There were far 
fewer of those than the snow geese.

And I've been hearing red-winged blackbirds but haven't seen them yet.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese over Seneca Falls & MNWR Visitor's Center

[job121830]

16 Feb. 2023 This afternoon daughter Becky & I saw great, strung out flocks of 
snows flying north in both areas. The flocks over the visitor's center appeared 
to be too high to be heading to "the muck" but I didn't have time to head that 
way to check. Becky sees flights over her place on Ridge Rd., 1 3/4 mi. east of 
Union Springs & also many in nearby farm fields. 
Also saw a mixed flock of 'black birds' heading to refuge trees to roost. Best 
sighting was a female harrier hunting over a field just west of the 
intersection of 318 & 5 & 20.

RE:[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese

[Deb Grantham]

A smallish V of snow geese were flying high above and parallel to Sheffield 
Road, Ithaca/Enfield town line, at about 9:30 am today. There may have been a 
couple dozen birds. Heading south, of course.

A very large and messy formation of geese flew overhead yesterday evening, just 
light enough to see them. Looked like Canada geese but light was bad and they 
were high. Heading south. Vees within Vees and messy. Could have been a couple 
hundred.

Caught a glimpse of what I think was a Cooper’s hawk heading from my pasture on 
Sheffield Road into the hedgerow about 1:30 today.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese over Geneva

[Alyssa Johnson]

This evening just about sunset, I heard that recognizable higher pitched, 
sporadic honking of a snow goose flock flying over.

There were about 150-200 in a messy U shape flying NE, probably looking for a 
good corn field to roost in overnight. I was on the west side of the city when 
I noticed them.

We definitely don’t see the hundreds of thousands in the fall, as we do during 
the spring waterfowl migration. On the Atlantic Flyway, I’ve learned during the 
fall migration they take a more direct route from the tundra breeding grounds, 
to the east coast and then move south where they’ll winter. In the spring they 
seem to make more of an in-land route cutting through DE/PA/NY and on around 
the Great Lakes. 

I already can’t wait to hear them in March!

[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese over Union Springs

[job121830]

Thurs. 11/24/22  about 2 p.m..   Daughter Becky heard & then we saw a fair 
sized raft of snow geese heading SSW which probably took them down towards 
Aurora &/or Deans cove, an often safe spot for them, esp. during hunting season 
of any kind. They hear shots & head for mid-lake. This is common for Cayuga & 
Owasco lakes where we often see large rafts of snows & sometimes blues..

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese raft

[Deb Grantham]

About 4:45 pm from west side of lake near Cayuga Lake State Park: many snow 
geese, some in a smallish raft, some flying south but low along the lake.

Also several dozen swans nearer the shore and scattered long a stretch of about 
¾ mile. Not sure what kind, was getting too dark.

Two great blue herons.

Lots of small water fowl that I think were coots but am not at all sure.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese - A Huge Problem

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Hi everyone,

Here is a great article from Ducks Unlimited: 
https://www.ducks.org/conservation/national/light-goose-dilemma

There can be a great impact on the public when we get to experience things like 
the annual spring Snow Goose migration through the Finger Lakes, because it is 
amazing! Whenever I work with a tour group or give a presentation, I include 
this sort of information about the degradation of the arctic breeding grounds. 
The spectacle of seeing the geese can open up conversations about climate 
change, carrying capacity, and relative perspectives. We love them, but they're 
here for such a short amount of time I think we can all agree on the 
general feeling toward Canada Geese: messy, mean, ew, too many, pests, etc. Do 
we value Snow Geese more because they're graceful white birds similar to swans? 
And, because they're not here long enough to annoy us and degrade crops?

I always talk a lot about Mute Swans and European Starlings in these kinds of 
conversations. Ecologically, both species are similar in the damages they cause 
to native breeding birds, but we all know that many people LOVE Mute Swans and 
detest Starlings. Why? Big, white, graceful bird who is mostly out of sight and 
out of mind in a wetland somewhere when attacking and killing native birds? The 
carnage isn't as always in your face like we might see Starlings do. They'll 
come to our feeders by the dozens and many people see first-hand the damage 
they do because of nest boxes we check on,  thus are more apt to see the 
carnage. Anyway, there is a lot of psychology involved with wildlife management 
and public perception of wildlife and it's interesting to discuss.

Back to the article: "Light Goose" refers to Lesser and Greater Snow Geese, as 
well as Ross's Geese collectively (vs darker Canadas).

A few excerpts:

"Why have light goose numbers increased so dramatically over the past half 
century? In simple terms, the birds have benefited from the expansion of 
agriculture on their migration<http://www.ducks.org/hunting/migration> and 
wintering areas, which has provided them with an almost unlimited food supply. 
This has increased survival, allowing more young birds to reach breeding age 
and more adults to return to the breeding grounds in better condition, which 
has increased productivity.

Changes in land use have also altered the migration and wintering distribution 
of light geese. ... In recent decades, light geese have become more widely 
distributed as the birds have shifted to a diet largely consisting of waste 
grain and other agricultural foods during migration and winter. Lesser snow 
geese are now wintering farther north and over a much greater area than ever 
before, and Ross's geese have steadily expanded their range eastward over the 
past few decades."

"The effects of light goose overabundance were initially documented on breeding 
areas in the central and eastern Arctic and subarctic, but recent surveys 
indicate that population growth of lesser snow geese could also be occurring in 
the western Arctic at a similar pace. Although waterfowl managers believe 
existing breeding habitats can support light goose populations at current 
levels, the point at which continued population growth will exceed the capacity 
of the landscape to sustain the birds has yet to be determined. When 
traditional breeding habitats are degraded, light geese simply shift to 
different habitats or move to new areas where conditions are more favorable. No 
one knows how much potential breeding habitat exists in the Arctic and 
subarctic, or the proportion of current light goose breeding habitat that has 
been damaged or destroyed. In addition, more research is needed to determine 
light goose impacts on migration habitats during spring and fall."

"Defining a problem is not nearly as difficult as solving it, and so far the 
primary means of light goose population control has been through harvest

Hello, Can someone please explain how this population of Snow Geese we saw this 
year is out of the ordinary over the long haul. Have human beings somehow 
contributed to an overpopulation? Don't the populations always ebb and flow 
depending on many factors?  thanks for any input, Meredith

Greetings All,
For all of you who have been seeing the Snow Goose “breathtaking spectacle” 
throughout the Finger Lakes area and think it’s just the coolest thing you’ve 
ever seen – think again.
A number of years ago I attended a program at MNWR which focused on the 
out-of-control Snow Goose population and the devastating effect they are having 
the tundra where they breed. Bottom line is that Snow Geese are destroying the 
ultra-fragile tundra, which is made up of primarily of lichens which grow 
exceedingly slow. Snow Goose foraging behavior causes them to uproot the 
lichens entirely rather than nip them off above ground, which results in a 
Tundra desert.
I encourage everyone to Google: Trouble on the Tundra: Snow Geese Under The 
Gun, by Howard Schneider, 1997. If this was a major concern 25 years ago, 
imagine what the effect is today.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese at Montezuma and guided tours!

[Johnson, Alyssa]

I have not been in the Montezuma area since Saturday, so I've been missing the 
show! I've been getting almost hour by hour updates though from many birders 
who have been out that way and...

It sounds like the Snow Geese have ARRIVED! The muck flats on Route 31 between 
Savannah and Montezuma (town) are packed with Snow Geese, swans, ducks, and 
Canadas! Many people have been enjoying them the last few days, don't delay 
until next week because it very well could be too late, and I can't predict how 
long they'll be around.

If you go to look for them:

-The gravel "pull offs" (which are used for loading/unloading equipment by the 
farmer) on 31 itself are privately owned, and I have no authority to grant 
people access to park there, however they've been used for a long time and the 
owners don't seem to mind.
-please do not stop on route 31 or walk across! The traffic goes very fast 
through there and there is no safe place to get out of the way.
-please look around before you leave, to make sure no litter, masks, bottles, 
etc. fell out of your vehicle when getting in and out
-the fields along 31 are primarily private lands, although there is a strip of 
refuge owned land closer to the canal on the west side. There is no public 
access for people to be out in the fields either on refuge or private lands here
-hunting may occur on these fields. Usually, decoys are set on the south side 
of 31. This is legal, the landowners can hunt or allow anyone to hunt there if 
they like, and snow geese are a well populated species that needs management.

I have guided tours on the schedule this week, and Wednesday's tour has no one 
registered yet! It's going to be great birding; I can't believe it hasn't sold 
out yet.

Here are links for more info and to register for upcoming tours:

3/9/22 https://act.audubon.org/a/montezuma-birding-tour-030922

3/12/22 https://act.audubon.org/a/montezuma-birding-tour-31222

The full schedule of Montezuma Audubon Center events is listed at: Programs & 
Events 

And lastly, I am offering my All About Snow Geese presentation virtually 
Thursday evening! I have recently given this presentation, so if you already 
attended, this will be very similar. I do record them and if you can't make it 
Thursday night, if you register, I will send the recording to you afterwards.

https://act.audubon.org/a/all-about-snow-geese-031022

If you use Facebook, give us a 
follow- I'm trying to keep it updated over there and I posted a map of how to 
find the muck flats recently, it may be buried in the pics of the last day or 
so.

Good luck!

[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese at Montezuma

[Johnson, Alyssa]

I am watching a few thousand snow geese, maybe more, landing in a field right 
next to the 89/31 intersection in Savannah. Many swans, Canadas, ducks, crows, 
gulls and Horned Larks in attendance too!

Then migration is gaining momentum :)

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese Lower Lake Road?

[Laurie Michelman]

I was there this afternoon. A wide area of ice with some open areas. Lots of 
Tundra/Trumpeter Swans, various duck species, Canada Geese and gulls. No Snow 
Geese. But lots to see.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow geese iin Enfield, plus blackbirds

[Barbara Bauer Sadovnic]

A few snow geese flew over us in Enfield (Halseyville and Aiken) this 
afternoon, flying fairly low.  I didn't get a good look, because it was 
snowing!  They were turning, and I think ended up headed northeast of us.

And this morning, we also had a flock of about 80 mixed blackbirds, mostly 
adult male redwings, with a few first summer males, and a couple grackles.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

Try throwing a lightweight blanket over it, if you can get near it. Then put in 
med. dog carrier.

Call cornell vet school & ask how to take to Janet Swanson wildlife clinic.

They were so close to West shore this time, that several came ashore & were

They (est. 40,000 by Suan Y. ) attracted quite a large # of hairless primate

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese

That's awesome.  After a few days of quiet skies, the steady stream of the
snows and some mixed flocks was amazing!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese and sand hill cranes

[Donna Lee Scott]

No guarantee on seeing Snow geese tomorrow, but worth a try. They are often 
here today and gone tomorrow.

I looked for Sandhill cranes in sev. Montezuma Complex places & didn’t see any.
But others reported a few of them, days ago, so good to look around.

I did see lots of Canadas & lots of ducks.
Northern Pintails & Shovelers at MNWR visitors Ctr & other areas.

2 very large rafts of snow geese on the Cayuga lake viewed from the state park 
and lower lake road. VERY conservative estimate is 200k but the heat shimmer

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese on Cayuga Lake

[Geo Kloppel]

West Danby: Around 1:00 pm I saw a number of flocks of Snow Geese just 
entering the Cayuga Basin from the south. Not sure how extensive the flight 
was, but that mid-day timing always suggests a dawn origin in the coastal 
regions to our south. So, not entirely over yet!

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese on Cayuga Lake

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Can confirm! No where near the numbers we had on 3/17 (conservatively 400,000), 
but there are two large rafts on the lake as of 5:20pm. One raft can be viewed 
from Cayuga Lake SP and the larger group viewed from Wolffy’s Grill & 
Marina/Lower Lake Rd.

The may be the last weekend to see them, I hope all who want to, get to!

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese?

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Check the east side of the lake between Cayuga and Union Springs. Some folks 
who came into the MAC told us they saw them across the lake from Cayuga Lake 
SP. I've also seen in a hunting group I'm in, that they've been seen in the air 
over Auburn. I'm not sure if they are leaving us yet, we already thought that 
once, and then BAM! St Patrick's Day we got lucky.

None (to my knowledge) have been seen on the ground in the Montezuma Wetlands 
Complex today. Possible there's some way out in the Main Pool at the refuge, 
but they're hard to see unless the take flight.

We are seeing big numbers of Northern Pintail right now, check out Sandhill 
Crane Unit on Van Dyne Spoor Road, the wetlands in front of DEC Office on 
Morgan Road, and May's Point off 89.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow geese and bald Eagles

[Nancy Cusumano]

They were all heading north as we were leaving, like half as many on the water 
as wine we arrived. Will the come back south again tomorrow, or keep goin? 
Anyone want to guess?

It was a truly amazing sight and sounds. The amount of birds in the air at any 
one time made it look like the sky was fluttering.

We received a count from a very experienced birder after I left the area, he 
estimated 400,000! I came back a few hours later in the afternoon and the flock 
had definitely grown from when I saw it around 11:30 am.

Magical.

[cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese, ducks

[Lois E. Chaplin]

I took a quick trip up the east side of the lake and then down to the State 
Park. The usual sites were quiet. When I had a view of the lake I could see 
white rafts in the middle. The water at the visitor center is opening up and 
there were a lot of Canada Geese and a variety of ducks.

Down to the park - there is still ice at the marina/dock. The ice shelf at the 
shore line further south has melted. I had a pleasant viewing experience of 
several Gadwalls close to the shore with a variety of other ducks bobbing 
around. The two rafts of Snow Geese were moving around a fair amount.

There was a gathering of Snow Geese on the ice at Knox-Marcellus and a flock 
flitting around on the north side of 31 at the Potato Fields.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese...?

[Johnson, Alyssa]

Don't be fooled by the "snow geese" on the south side of Route 31, there is a 
large spread of decoys in front of a hunting blind there. Much of the land on 
either side of the road is privately owned (except for the eastern-most portion 
along the Seneca River, that's USFWS owned). There is also another spread of 
decoys between the split of 31/89 and East Road, on Route 89, northern side of 
the road. I've been tricked before!

After an enjoyable counting of bald eagles at Onondaga Lake this morning I 
drove across to Montezuma Wildlife Refuge. On Rt. 31 mucklands there were large 
numbers of snow geese on the south side of the road as well as many more 
landing further north but out of sight range.

At Carncross Rd. there were many Canada geese and some ducks on the front 
waters, but many snow geese were behind them on other open water stretches.

Hopefully they will be in closer viewing range in the coming days.
