[cayugabirds-l] Ibis at Carncross
The GLOSSY IBIS was present at the east end of the flooded cornfield on Carncross Road until at least 9:30 this morning. I turned to focus on the shorebirds, and the Ibis disappeared. Still present when I left were 30 - 40 Greater Yellowlegs, a smaller number of Lesser Yellowlegs, 10 Pectoral Sandpipers and one Dunlin - as well as a group of Caspian Terns. Other birds of note this morning were 10 Sandhill Cranes feeding, and occasionally dancing while calling, in the cornfield north of West Shore Trail (the road between VD Spoor & Wright Roads) and a group of five Ruddy Ducks at Knox-Marsellus.

[cayugabirds-l] Ibis sp. at MNWR
While conducting a Marsh Bird Survey on the Main Pool this evening, we had a fly over of a dark ibis. It was vocalizing, but that didn't seem to help narrow it down. I presume Glossy, but did not get a close look to confirm.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] ibis on Armitage rd, Wayne Co
I was there with Dave Nutter, Melissa and Wade Rowley, and Kevin McGann. Wade and I walked up closer, but the bird was still far away. We thought it might be a 1st winter bird. It had no white around it’s eye which was not red. I was told it could still be a WFIB because the red eye wouldn’t necessarily be seeable. I hope someone else gets to see it and ID it. Better lighting would be helpful!! Ann Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 5, 2017, at 5:54 PM, Kevin J.

[cayugabirds-l] ibis on Armitage rd, Wayne Co
This afternoon, Laura Stenzler and Ton Schat directed attention to a dark ibis they found north of Armitage Rd, west of rt 38 north of Monezuma. I was birding nearby, and headed right over. I found the bird, but unfortunately the rain started in earnest right then, and the lighting was poor. Also the bird was very actively foraging in the far north end of the east-most section of flooded farm fields and did not give good looks. White-faced and Glossy ibis are about equally likely to occur here. The bird looked like a non-breeding-plumaged adult, with no white on the face to help with ID (broad white in White-faced, thin white stripes in Glossy). It was way too far away, and the light was way too dim for me to be able to see if there was any red in the face or not. I could not tell which species it was. Unless someone else gets better looks or better photos, I have to put it down as "Plegadis sp." or "Glossy/White-faced Ibis." Kevin Kevin J.

[cayugabirds-l] Ibis sighting Saturday 22 July at Tschache Pool
This afternoon (Sat 22 July) Ferris Akel took video of a dark ibis flying over Tschache Pool at Montezuma NWR. Although Glossy Ibis is more common here than White-faced Ibis, both have been seen at Montezuma NWR in years past, and the video did not appear to me to be identifiable to species. This is the first ibis report in the area of which I am aware, so I am listing this as "Plegadis sp (Ibis)" in the 2017 Cayuga Lake Basin First Records unless/until someone gets a better look at such a bird in the area soon, and is able to see distinguishing field marks. Ferris Akel does a remarkable weekly live-stream birding program called Birding with Ferris, often at Montezuma NWR or Sapsucker Woods. Viewers discuss what is heard and seen, come to a consensus, and submit an eBird report. The relevant part of today's show can be seen at http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/106116822 The ibis can be seen for about 10 seconds starting at about 55:30 and again at about 56:25 through about 59:04. It's distant, high-magnification, shaky, and often out of focus, but it shows an all-dark wader with long trailing legs, a long thin neck, a bulbous head thicker than the neck, a long down-curved grayish bill, and a fast steady wingbeat interrupted a few times by a short glide, all of which is typical of either Glossy Ibis or White-faced Ibis. --Dave Nutter Begin forwarded message: > From: ebird-al...@cornell.edu > Date: July 22, 2017 at 7:10:52 PM EDT > To: Undisclosed recipients: ; > Subject: [eBird Alert] Seneca County Rare Bird Alert > > - > Thank you for subscribing to the Seneca County Rare Bird Alert.The > report below shows observations of rare birds in Seneca County.

[cayugabirds-l] Ibis video and photos
Hi everyone, It's not very often that one has the chance to view White-faced and Glossy Ibis side-by-side at very close proximity -- particularly in Upstate New York. I thought some people may enjoy some side-by-side video. https://vimeo.com/77369914 The face pattern and eye color is certainly striking, but one can see a wide range of differences between these two birds. I was struck by the differences in color pattern to the wing coverts, which stood out strongly when the birds are side-by-side but I expect may also be helpful on lone birds. It was interesting to see how these colors changed, when the sun was obscured by a cloud or the birds changed angles. Perhaps the best single image I have to compare these when the birds are a the same angle to the light is here (also helpful because the heads are distracting us). http://www.flickr.com/photos/pinicola/10392852153/ There are a few other still images up as well. http://www.flickr.com/photos/pinicola/ It was great see so many people watching, studying, taking photos of two great birds at Montezuma that were close enough for everyone to see and enjoy.
