Hi all, 3:15 pm - I called the visitor center at Montezuma. The fire is just about out, the drive is closed and the visitor center will close shortly. The fire was in the cattails in the main pool area. Laura

The most probable cause is a discarded cigarette! The refuge policy is to let the fire burn as long as it does not threaten people or dwellings. News updates on CNYcental.com. Sad news for a beautiful Sunday when Spring Migration is really on the uptick. ---Suzanne Henderson -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html 3) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
