Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Ravens
I've been seeing/hearing them at our home once or twice a week for the past 3 years. Pretty sure they nest in Turkey Hill State forest, about .5 miles away. David McCartt Tubbs Hill Rd.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Ravens
Here, in the Binghamton area (specifically Endicott) we've seen Ravens this year on a semi-regular basis, which has never happened before in my awareness. I was wondering the same thing, myself. Are they becoming more common around here?! We've also seen some in our short travels, which also seems to be more frequent.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Ravens
A pair of Ravens nests yearly on my hillside overlooking West Danby. Other Ravens nest directly across the valley, and still others farther east in the Danby State Forest, as well as off to the west in the Newfield State Forest. We're solidly in the forested emerald necklace here, and I would think there must be at least one pair for each ten-square-mile block of appropriate habitat.
