I had a very gratifying morning of birding and human fellowship on
Saturday, mostly in connection with the Finger Lakes Land Trust Spring Bird
Quest (SBQ). Here is a log of my stops with some highlights.
1. Campbell Meadow (owned by Town of Dryden, subject to simple covenant
with Land Trust)
I forgot to mention, there is a Killdeer nest with eggs on the gravel path just
a few yards south of the Osprey platform. It is in a VERY precarious spot and I
urge people to keep away from it and watch from a distance. I've put two sticks
to mark it. Please, photographers, don't stress these
Hi all,
Beginning around 7:30 this morning, I spent a couple of hours birding and
photographing at Salt Point.
Selected birds seen/heard as follows:
5 Common Merganser adults hanging out with the resting gulls in Salmon Creek
1 Common Loon (breeding plumage) offshore
Belted Kingfisher
Osprey
