Re: [cayugabirds-l] stranded common loon to be rescued Sun.
I stopped by Goetchius Wetland Presreve this morning (4/18) on my way to work and did not see this bird. Hopefully, this is an indication that the bird was successfully rescued. There was a nice pair of COMMON MERGANSERS close to the road and the drainage pipe that might have snared the loon.

[cayugabirds-l] stranded common loon to be rescued Sun.
My sister just called to say that Victoria Campbell called and said the loon stranded on the east side of Flat Iron Rd. will be rescued at 10 am tomorrow (Sunday). Thanks to everyone for their efforts on this beautiful bird's behalf; here's hoping the efforts are successful to get it back on its way. -Kristie (Glen's wife) -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html 3) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

I don't doubt her capabilities one bit. Such people are well trained compassionate. I meant the activity of people who might flock to see the capture would traumatize the bird. I am relieved to know the name of a re-habber in the area. We apparently no longer have one here in our area. She was harrassed by certain people who apparently had the mentality ( good intentions) of many of PETA members. Things done to her were destructive, mean, cruel thoughtless. Our daughter was a re-habber in Florida for a number of yrs.. It's often a dangerous thankless job. At one time she had more larger snakes in her home than did the local zoo. Fritzie For people who don't know. Victoria Campbell is a thoroughly knowledgeable and infinitely compassionate Wildlife Rehabber that we are very lucky to have in our area. She runs Wild Things Sanctuary off Snyder Hill Road. You can bet the loon is in the most gentle, capable and ethical of hands with her involvement Linda Orkin Sent from my iPhone On Apr 16, 2011, at 8:23 PM, John and Fritzie Blizzard job121...@verizon.net wrote: Hope a lot of people don't converge on the site traumatize the bird more than it probably will be, if it isn't already.

Yes, on second thought I probably should not have posted the time. 'Twas not meant as an invitation -- hopefully if anyone gets in the way Victoria will let them know! I'll ask my sister to update me and will let the list know how it turned out. -Kristie - Original Message - From: John and Fritzie Blizzard To: Linda Orkin Cc: Glen ; cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu Sent: Saturday, April 16, 2011 9:14 PM Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] stranded common loon to be rescued Sun.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] stranded common loon to be rescued Sun.
I am going to write here what I feel needs to be. Birders! Please resist the urge to witness the rescue, and potentially compromise the rescue effort. . Stay away and let the rehab person do her job. Read about it here - LATER! Please!! On Sat, Apr 16, 2011 at 9:21 PM, Glen glen...@frontiernet.net wrote: Yes, on second thought I probably should not have posted the time.
