RE: [cayugabirds-l] Whimbrel, Ruddy Turnstones Genva
Castle Creek is right on the NW "corner" of Seneca. If you know where the Ramada is, just a short ways north of that. There's a great paved bike path to follow. I was just there 20 minutes ago, no sighting of whimbrels, but possibly 2 ruddys taking flight from the end of the jetty with some gulls. They were spooked by people walking, and it's very windy with a southern wind right now... They didn't stick around long.

RE: [cayugabirds-l] Whimbrel, Ruddy Turnstones Genva
Just came from there. There were two Whimbrels at the end of the Castle Creek jetty, constantly being flushed by walkers. They would return, but in a very short while would be flushed again. These birds need a place to rest for extended periods, but just can't get it here. Looks like I'm going to have to re-present my idea of "Sandpiper Island", an offshore refuge that is inaccessible by humans. It got shot down by the city and state the first time, 3-4 years ago, but I'm going to jump back in and take the issue as far as I can.
