Re: [cayugabirds-l] snow geese flying

2023-02-27 Thread Todd Beeton 
I saw hundreds (if not more?) flying North yesterday afternoon, visible
driving east toward Geneva on 5 and 20. It was an amazing sight. It was
late in the afternoon, just before sundown.

Well, I don’t have a method for estimating, so I could be very, very wrong!

The snow geese that I also saw today were up along Rt 89 not far from Wolffy's 
Grill and there must have been closer to 50,000 between those rafting on the 
lake and those flying overhead! Amazing!

This was from Sheffield Road, the Ithaca/Enfield town line and about ¼ mile 
north of Rt. 79.

I also quite a few Vs of Canada geese that were circling or doing a 180, hard 
to tell, I think they were mostly heading south/south-east. There were far 
fewer of those than the snow geese.

And I’ve been hearing red-winged blackbirds but haven’t seen them yet.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese flying south over Ithaca - hundreds. --...

2012-12-28 Thread Geo Kloppel 
During the last hour, about 1,000 Canada and 300 Snow Geese flew over my head 
and out of the basin in what looked like determined southbound migration. The 
high hilltops (circa 1900 feet) seemed to scrape the cloud ceiling earlier, but 
perhaps it is lifting enough to embolden migrants...
