Bob McGuire just called again (12:45 PM). He has found five AMERICAN GOLDEN-PLOVERS just south of the intersection of Routes 31 and 89 in the Savannah Mucklands, close to the road in a newly-harvested potato field. Mark Chao -- Cayugabirds-L List Info:

[cayugabirds-l] American Golden Plovers

Thanks Mark and Jay for posting after my phone calls. There were in total 7 AMERICAN GOLDEN PLOVERS in the newly-harvested potato fields along Rt 31 in the Mucklands. Five of them were adults in various stages of molt and two were freshly-minted juveniles. They were between 100 and 200 feet

[cayugabirds-l] Bald Eagle

An adult BALD EAGLE just glided high over the Lab of Ornithology (6:20 PM), heading south - I'm sure there was a lot of migration out there today that I missed. KEN -- Ken Rosenberg Director, Conservation Science Program Cornell Lab of Ornithology
