[cayugabirds-l] Turkey
I just returned from a walk up Eastern Heights Rec. Way and as I was coming down the hill a large Tom Turkey flew across the walk way; landed in the woods and rapidly 'jogged' through the woods away from the walkway. This was the first time I've seen a turkey in this area--aside from the domestic turkeys which are fenced in. Perhaps they've been calling to him? Further along, on the East Ithaca Rec Way, half way between Honness Lane and Mitchell St there were 20 Blue Jays just apparently 'hanging out' together in a tree!

[cayugabirds-l] OT: bobcats
I have frequently checked the local bobcat highway (location not given) this winter, and have occasionally found one set of tracks; either moving one way or the other. So I was excited today to see two sets of fresh tracks, both headed the same direction. Like domestic cats, the following cat will often step in the prints of the leading one, but not always.
