Indigenous People of Western New York
FACT SHEET / FEBRUARY 2018 Indigenous People of Western New York Kristin Szczepaniec Territorial Acknowledgement In keeping with regional protocol, I would like to start by acknowledging the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee and by honoring the sovereignty of the Six Nations–the Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, Seneca and Tuscarora–and their land where we are situated and where the majority of this work took place.

Whatever your idea of a good time, you’ll find it around Lake Erie. Best Chautauqua Lake Getaway Chautauqua Lake offers year-round nourishment for the mind, body and soul, even beyond the gates of the Chautauqua Institution. Along its 41 miles of shoreline, you’ll find small villages, each with its own distinctive charm. Listen to moving music in Mayville, fill your belly in Bemus Point, laugh in Jamestown or head south to Celoron, where a new destination hotel is making waves. At first light, strands of sunshine mingle with swirling mist hovering just above Chautauqua Lake on a crisp morning. The water is calm until a skein of honking geese come in for a landing, skidding across the surface and sending a wave of ripples in front of the resort-like Chautauqua Harbor Hotel in Celoron, New York. The 135-room hotel opened last year on the grounds of the famed Celoron Park, a popular theme park that opened in 1894 and shuttered in 1962. It’s a great spot for a getaway — anytime of the year — and makes an ideal launching spot for exploring the rest of the lake. But before you head out, make sure to enjoy what the Chautauqua Harbor Hotel has to offer. -

Sugar Bay Willow Bay These Conservation Areas, Located Within
Sugar Bay Willow Bay These Conservation Areas, located within the Allegheny Reservoir, support several nesting pairs of osprey (Pandion haliaetus), a state threatened species. The Allegheny Reservoir, also known as Kinzua Lake, is a 12,000-acre impoundment that spans the border between Pennsylvania and New York. In Pennsylvania, the reservoir is completely surrounded by the Allegheny National Forest; and in New York State by Allegany State Park and the Allegany Indian Reservation of the Seneca Nation. The landscape surrounding the reservoir is entirely forested. The osprey is a Neotropical migrant bird species with a range that is widespread and increasing. Its main breeding range extends from northern Canada south to the Great Lakes states and along Atlantic and Gulf Coasts to Florida. More scattered populations breed along inland rivers and lakes. The species is considered imperiled within the state, although its population may be increasing due in part to active management by the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Habitat requirements for osprey vary between sites, but must include an adequate supply of accessible live fish within commuting distance of nest (10–20 km); shallow waters (0.5–2 meters deep) which generally provide the most accessible fish; and open nest sites free from predators (Poole et al. 2002). Reservoirs that provide ample expanses of shallow, clear water have ideal conditions for hunting. Like other fish-eating birds, osprey generally defend only nest sites, not feeding territories. Threats and Stresses Any factor that would decrease water quality of the lake would impact the nesting ospreys. Non- point source pollution from agricultural development upslope from the lake and timber harvesting within forested areas along the lake are the greatest threats to water quality.
