I have 2 white throated sparrows - one of each "flavor" visiting me this morning. Pete Saracino On 3/14/2017 1:52 PM, Marie P.

[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant Horned Larks etc
Hi all, The corn stubble field just west of the radio tower on Mt Pleasant Rd had a flock of 30-ish Horned Larks foraging among numerous pigeons, crows, and Canada Geese this morning, around 10:15. And closer to the observatory, six Snow Buntings were foraging along the roadside.

[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant Horned Larks
12/31 - Just went to go see the Horned Larks. Saw about 25+ flitting between the fields on both sides of the road, near the end of Mt. Pleasant (at the junction to Mineah Road). Nice views of the ones that landed on the road near the car!

[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant Horned Larks
Hi all, The local flock of Horned Larks is currently visible in the corn-stubble field on the south side of Mt Pleasant Road (east end). I estimated around 20 earlier this morning, but I know there are more. Thinking of tomorrows' bird count, I wonder if "a bunch" would be a valid number?? ;-) Have fun and good counting tomorrow! Happy New Year to all.

[cayugabirds-l] Mt Pleasant Horned Larks
Hi all, Friday afternoon around 3:30, I watched a large flock of Horned Larks foraging along the roadside and in a newly harvested cornfield at the eastern end of Mt Pleasant Rd...a rough count turned up 70 but there were more. I tried at first to turn them into Snow Buntings but did not succeed, telling myself that a flock of larks that big was just as cool ;-)) Marie Marie Read Wildlife Photography 452 Ringwood Road Freeville NY 13068 USA Phone 607-539-6608 e-mail m...@cornell.edu http://www.marieread.com Author of Sierra Wings: Birds of the Mono Lake BasinAvailable here: http://marieread.photoshelter.com/gallery/Sierra-Wings-Birds-of-the-Mono-Lake-Basin/GNlCxX37uTzE/CBPFGij6nLfE -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

HI all, Forgot to post this earlier, but a flock of 2 dozen or so Horned Larks flushed up from the side of the road at the field that has just had corn harvested, east end of Mt Pleasant Road, about 11 am today.

The first courtship and territoriality were obvious this morning on Mt Pleasant, with 2 males singing from the patches of snow-free ground opened up by the mild weather.
