It was seen yesterday and today. Another feeder highlight today is that I had a male Purple Finch at my feeders with two female Purple Finches. I have never had a male Purple Finch at my feeder let alone my county! I always get females.

It flew off when I arrived for work (around 11 a.m.), but later in the day it flew back in, perching in the walnut tree by the sidewalk bulletin board. The only open water nearby is the little pond with waterfall in the viewing area. Maybe it's fishing it? :) At the feeders was a SONG SPARROW, along with all the other routine sparrows: white-crowned, white-throated, house, tree. The RED-HEADED WOODPECKERS were active, as well as the WILD TURKEY (a.k.a. wild pigs! They really "gobble" down the food!). A CROW took a liking to the platform feeder, and the area was loaded with cardinals. Stop in, grab a cup of hot coffee and relax in the bird viewing area. Heated restrooms available, 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. Happy Birding! Lynnanne Lynnanne Fager, Interpretive Naturalist Upper Wabash Interpretive Services (Salamonie Lost Bridge West) 3691 S.

There were also some domestic ducks, 3 Pekin Ducks and 1 Magpie Duck, in Mill Creek around the upper falls. I stopped by Lieber SRA too, but as I expected the lake was completely frozen and there wasn't much activity. The lake and Mill Creek are both very low still. There's a significant Turkey Vulture roost across from the entrance to Cataract Falls. There were at least 25 there when I left and many more in the air. http://vw.homelinux.net/z/picture.php?/1413/category/38 http://vw.homelinux.net/z/picture.php?/1414/category/38 Vern Location: Cataract Falls Observation date: 1/17/11 Number of species: 21 Turkey Vulture X Cooper's Hawk 1 Red-tailed Hawk 1 American Kestrel 1 Mourning Dove X Red-headed Woodpecker X Red-bellied Woodpecker X Downy Woodpecker X Pileated Woodpecker 2 Blue Jay X American Crow X Carolina Chickadee X Tufted Titmouse X White-breasted Nuthatch (Eastern) X Cedar Waxwing X Song Sparrow X White-throated Sparrow X White-crowned Sparrow 3 Dark-eyed Junco X Northern Cardinal X American Goldfinch X This report was generated automatically by eBird v2(http://ebird.org) ********************************************************** Need to read an older IN-BIRD-L Posting?

Eagle, Snow Bunting, , WITU, PUFI From: Don Gorney <dongorney AT YAHOO.COM> Date: Mon, 17 Jan 2011 12:03:05 -0800 I birded a portion of Mississinewa Reservoir, Miami and Wabash counties, and surrounding area this morning, January 17, from 7:15am to about 11am. Lynnanne Fager met me at the eagle roost and showed me other areas where she has been seeing the eagles. Also present at the eagle roost bridge (previously mentioned by Lynnanne) were Al Christ, Beth Deimling and friends. Highlights for the day were Bald Eagle (43), Golden Eagle (1), Wild Turkey (9), Lapland Longspur, Snow Bunting, and Purple Finch. The eagle roost is fascinating because you actually see the birds roosting, unlike the Parke County site which is on private property and you see the birds in flight. My high count at the roost was 39 perched and 3 that had flown for a total of 42 (about 20 perched in one scope view). After I left Lynnane at 10am, I reversed my route and counted 43 Balds. This included traveling north from the roost bridge to SR 124 (20 at the reservoir, 8 at the dam and FAR tailwater area, 2 in flight near the dam, 11 at the roost, and 2 additional ones past Seven Pillars). Lynnanne found the Golden Eagle for me but made me stand in the below wind chill temps at the Mississinewa beach to see it across the reservoir. A scope was necessary. We could not see all of the tail due to a sycamore tree limb, but it did not appear to be the first-cycle bird that Lynnanne has seen and photographed. There was some pale on the undertail but not a white band. The bird flew when we were not looking. Two Snow Buntings were with Horned Larks on the east side of Frances Slocum about .5 mile south of SR 124. Four Purple Finches including an adult male were feeding with juncos on the road below the dame near the Peoria fishing site. The Wild Turkeys were on the west side of the road and were found by someone in Al Christ's group. Sightings at and near Mississinewa are below followed by misc. sightings seen on the way home. Location: Mississinewa Lake--Dam Observation date: 1/17/11 Number of species: 28 Golden Eagle and some Balds were seen in Wabash County. Everything else is from Miami County. Mallard 3 Wild Turkey 9 Great Blue Heron 3 Bald Eagle 43 Red-tailed Hawk 3 Golden Eagle 1 Mourning Dove 42 Belted Kingfisher 1 Red-bellied Woodpecker 4 Downy Woodpecker 1 Northern Flicker 1 Pileated Woodpecker 2 Blue Jay 1 American Crow 17 Horned Lark 25 Carolina Chickadee 1 Tufted Titmouse 2 White-breasted Nuthatch 1 Carolina Wren 1 Eastern Bluebird 1 American Robin 28 European Starling 125 Dark-eyed Junco 45 Snow Bunting 2 Northern Cardinal 6 Purple Finch 4 American Goldfinch 2 House Sparrow 20 I traveled country roads looking for longspurs and Snow Buntings on the way home. Places where I found them are listed below.

ending up at Paynetown and Cutright. Very little activity on the lake,
despite increasing amounts of open water. The highlights;
Fairfax Road:
Black Vulture - 5 (perched in tree about 4 miles N of Fairfax)
Red-tailed Hawk - 2
Fairfax (despite much more open water visible from the launch ramp, the
large flock of ducks that has been there for the past few days was not
visible - perhaps because a lot of the open water can not been seen
behind the nearby point):
Bufflehead - 1
Common Merganser - 12 (flying)
Bald Eagle - 1 (juv - sitting on ice off of the beach)
Pied-billed Grebe - 9 (in open water in marina)
Paynetown:
Bald Eagle - 1 (adult)
ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK - 1 (adult female light phase) - flew right in front
of me at the N end of the causeway, coming from Shawnee Bluffs -
continued on along the ridge over Mellencamp's house - this is the
first Rough-leg I have seen at the E end of the lake in many years -
a beautiful bird in wonderful light.
Cutright:
Common Merganser - 3
Hooded Merganser - 4
Bald Eagle - 2 (1 adult, 1 Basic I)
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker - 1 (in persimmon tree at near house boat
marina - where it has been all winter!)

Subject: Ross's Goose, Terre Haute, Vigo CountyFrom: Peter Scott <Peter.Scott AT INDSTATE.EDU> Date: Mon, 17 Jan 2011 14:30:42 -0500 Today at noon, on the east side of Terre Haute, Diana Hews and I scanned a very large flock of Canada Geese, perhaps 3000, grazing in fields along State Highway 46 at the intersection with Poplar Avenue, on the east site of Hwy 46 (across from Village Quarter Apts). This is about 1 mile west of Hulman Airfield. There was 1 ROSS'S GOOSE at the far, easternmost edge of the flock of geese. Though at least 300 yards distant, I feel confident of the ID (through scope) based on size comparison with neighboring Canadas (roughly three times as large) and Crows, its round head, and short beak. We saw no other geese species, just 200 or so Mallards and a few American Black Ducks. Peter E.

I also spent 2 hours today on Sunday 1-16-11. I did run across a Vulture roost along Hwy 64 a few miles east of there on south side of hwy that I stopped and looked at (around 11 am) but there were only about 5 TV's sitting plus two flying at that time. I saw roadkill about every 12 miles on average. Only crows and one Red-shouldered Hawk were feeding on roadkill.

We observed and photographed the owl for a few minutes when it suddenly acted startled, a quick jump and then looked over it's shoulder and froze. Now I have observed many owls on many occasions, however I have never seen an owl sit completely still for 15 minutes. I mean I did not even see it blink. After watching this owl stay frozen for about 4 or 5 minutes I knew something was up and started scanning the direction the owl was facing. That is when I found a Red-tailed Hawk perched high in a tree some 75 yards behind the owl. After 15 minutes the hawk took flight and the owl slowly turned it's head watching the hawk fly over head. We confirmed the time span with the time stamps on photographs. I had never considered a Red-tailed Hawk as a potential threat for a Barred Owl, evidently this owl thought so.

From: Jhawillet AT AOL.COM Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2011 20:02:36 -0500 It was a very nice day, comparatively speaking, for this winter: very cold (5-20) but with little wind and considerable sunshine in the morning. I did a drive through Pigeon River FWA in Lagrange and Steuben Counties, then meandered around western Steuben Co. checking strategic spots and finally went into eastern Steuben, turning south on Steuben Co. 700S and DeKalb Co. CR 71 to Butler, then home via SR 1, 101, and 37. There is very little open water, even at Pigeon R. at the pools at Naseby Dam (completely frozen) and the Mongo millpond (95% frozen). I recorded 45 species, my highest day total of the year so far. Highlights were several semi-hardy species that are uncommon or rare in winter here in the Indiana arctic. I'm rather surprised that so many semi-hardy birds are wintering in this exceptionally cold, snowy year. Going down the east side of Steuben, I did not see the Northern Shrike that Jeff McCoy et al found on the Pokagon CBC NW of 700E and 200N, although I drove the area three times. There is so much good shrike habitat, much of it well off the road, that it easily could have been there. I also checked the area east of Hamilton where extensive grassy, weedy fields once supported a good winter population of Short-eared Owls. There is no more grassland there; it's all cornfields now. I did run across one field with rather good Short-eared Owl habitat in NE DeKalb Co., on the west side of CR 71 just north of CR 12. Whether or not there are any owls is, of course, another question.

This had been mentioned to us. Unfortunately, there have been no vultures seen anywhere close to the area, at least not by us. We did see one lone vulture yesterday about ten miles from the site in the Somerville mine area south of Oakland City. We checked a little for the caracara again today but didn't put in the time that we had on our first two tries.

Our announced target species was Short-eared Owl. Participants included Melanie Arnold, David Atkinson, Michelle Gray, Diana Hackenburg, Chris Harshaw, Charlotte Holly, Janet Kelley, Gregory Kohn, Bill Manwaring, Liza Olson, Keegan Ramey, David Rupp, Anne Sharp, Terry Wise, and maybe couple other folks for whom I don't have names. Conditions were chilly and windy. All water was frozen except for parts of the pond on SR 67 south of Switz City. The actions of well over 1000 geese may keep some of that pond open. Otherwise solid ice everywhere including all the shallow water wetlands at Goose Pond FWA, all the deep strip mine ponds at Bear Run (Hawthorn), the big pond on Greene Co. CR 1500 W south of County Line Marsh, and all running water in creeks. Skies were overcast. Temperatures remained the low 30s F but it seemed colder than that on damp day with afternoon winds W and then NW 13-15 mph gusting to 23-24 mph. The trip did well on raptors. We ended with fine and close encounters with 4 SHORT-EARED OWLS at Beehunter Marsh. One SEOW perched on a pipe allowing scope views for nearly all. The owls did a lot of foraging flights and aerial acrobatics. The flock of 400+ GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GEESE at the pond on SR 67 provided the waterfowl highlight. Scope views of the geese on the ice and shore. We crossed back and forth between Greene and Sullivan Counties several times and I did not keep lists by location for everything. In the annotations G= Greene County, S=Sullivan County. Here is a conglomerate trip list: GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE 400+ pond on SR 67 G Canada Goose 700+ pond on SR 67 G Mallard 47 pond on SR 67 G Common Goldeneye 1 female, pond on SR 67 G Northern Bobwhite 3 Goose Pond FWA, flew across SR 59 landing in little bluestem west of the DNR barn, probably by lead vehicle only Wild Turkey 3 Bear Run S, Don Allen vehicle only?

While we were there no Merlins perch up on the high power poles with winds gusting into the low to mid 20s mph. Thanks to Don Allen for organizing the trip and to all who came along in chilly and frozen conditions. --Lee Sterrenburg and Don Allen Bloomington ********************************************************** Need to read an older IN-BIRD-L Posting?

Other than feeder birds, nothing else of note. On a different note: I am looking to purchase a used copy of The Field Guide to the Birds of Australia, 8th Edition by Pizzey, Graham / Knight, Frank. Does anyone have a copy of this book that they would be willing to sell? If so, please reply to me privately. Thank you and Good birding!
