🔴 Live Cornell Lab FeederWatch Cam 🔴 at Sapsucker Woods

Tune into the serene beauty of Sapsucker Woods, home to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology in Ithaca, New York, as our live webcam brings the vibrant activity of our bird feeders directly to you. Witness a delightful parade of colorful avian visitors – from energetic chickadees and nuthatches performing acrobatics to the occasional flash of a cardinal or flicker – all feasting on provided seeds and suet. This 220-acre sanctuary, a remarkable example of preserved glacial landscapes featuring a permanent pond and primeval forest, offers a vital habitat for hundreds of bird species throughout the year. Interestingly, Sapsucker Woods is named after the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, a woodpecker known for drilling neat rows of holes in trees to feed on sap and insects, a behavior you might even catch a glimpse of in the surrounding trees. For nature enthusiasts planning a visit, late spring and early fall are particularly spectacular, offering peak migration viewing and the chance to explore the extensive network of accessible trails surrounding the feeder area.
