Hi,
It came to my attention that the Seneca Army Depot will be under consideration
for funding for saving it for a public space. I guess it will need support from

Interesting! I did two miles on the EIRW late this morning, in from Game Farm
Rd. Lots of birds. Carolina Wrens singing, American Tree & White-throated
Sparrows. Blue Jays with several different calls. A pair of Red-tails
co-conspiring and calling back and forth. Plus Chickadees and a Cardinal.
I did a four and half mile walk on East Ithaca Recreation Way only birds of
note were a pair of Cardinals near Maplewood Park apartments. Otherwise it was
very quiet!
Cheers

Hi all,
I was driving before, so I figured I'd wait until we stopped for ice cream
to post. This owl was just north of Wolffie's Restaurant right on the
shore. It was sitting next to a little hump and a frozen buoy.
Sorry for the delay. I figured enough owls were being posted that it
wouldn't hur
