Just for clarification, this change is being implemented over 13 Wildlife
Management Units (WMUs) not just on Howland's Island and the Refuge. WMUs do
not follow political boundaries so it is difficult to just explain exactly
where this hunting can now take place but it impacts the Muckrace beca

The short story: We encountered 27 immature Bald Eagles together at the North
spillway of Tschache Pool on Sunday. It was the largest convocation of eagles I
have ever experienced. And I mean 27 all together... that doesn't count the
birds we were seeing over head or the birds we encountered ear
Yes, I believe that is exactly what it means. For example, hunting can involve
other implements besides guns. So a no firearms ban is not the same as a no
hunting ban.

it down. I presume Glossy, but did not get a close look to confirm. JVN

You are only quoting the section regarding depredation or the control of these
birds when they are a nuisance. There is a section that relates to sport
hunting. The crow shoot in question is legally considered a sport hunt. Anyone
participating must have a NYS hunting license and follow the rule
We tallied a new yard bird on Sunday as a Common Raven made an impressive
appearance through the backyard at tree-top height. It was carrying something
dark and was chased by two American Crows. We are not really in raven country
up here in the flat land so this was a nice surprise...

Hi John and all,
My question to you is were the birds disturbed by so many people
I was at the Mucklands @ 715 this morning and saw tens of thousands of snows,
on the muck there as well as flying over from what I presumed was the Lake or
the Refuge. The ones on the muck lifted off at 724 and headed north.

Greetings,
We had 3 Black-crowned Night-herons as fly-overs last evening on Gravel
Road in Seneca Falls. They were flying in the direction of the Refuge.
Also of note, my daughter noticed an Osprey carrying a stick flying low
over our house this morning. When I got out, it had returned and we

Hey, John VN . great sighting of the BC Night Herons! And I didn't

Speaking of Gravel Road, I saw a pair of SANDHILL CRANES in the field north of
where Lay Road meets Gravel. You are familiar with Lay Road if you have ever
gone to Esker Brook Trail via Route 89. Both cranes were very rusty and were
first spotted at 310 and were still there at 400 on my return.
I am only a few minutes from this spot so I shot over this morning and found no
Gray Kingbird or anything else on the wires for that matter. This was at about
10AM and the rain was just starting and has gotten heavier since.
