Saw a Killdeer today on Hall Rd, Ovid.
Our first of the year Redwings were on Feb 27th, when we had both male and
female birds. I thought the males usually come first with the females a bit
later, but that wasn't the case at our place this year.
At our feeders yesterday and today have been man
Handsome EASTERN TOWHEE and possibly 2 FIELD SPARROWS at my ground bird food
area just now.
Field Sparrows scared away by squirrel before I could really study them, but
there was definitely no dark spot on their chests as for Tree Sparrows. Bill
looked pink.
I have often had Tree Sparrows here
S is for Spring - and for Swans (Trumpeter), Shovelers, Sandhill Cranes,
Swallows (Tree), Song Sparrows, & Savannah Sparrow. All were seen around
Savannah (Carncross & Armitage Rds) along with GW Teal, Wood Ducks, N. Pintail,
A. Wigeon, Gadwall, Ring-necked, Canvasback, Mallards, & Black Ducks.
Today I heard my first EASTERN PHOEBE and CAROLINA WRENS in my yard.
Eastern Heights.

In the last couple days, my dad saw a ROBIN in Groton, and a BALD EAGLE
over Cornell plantations. I got a nice look at a REDTAIL, hovering in midair
over a field.
