Laura Stenzler & my daughter, Becky, are_just south of Pumpkin Hill Bistro_ (/south of Aurora/) looking at the owl sitting atop a snow drift in the field on the_west side of Rte. 90_. The co-ordinates given below are correct BUT the location "Cayuga, NY" is not.
Becky said a row of spruce trees is just south of the apple orchard & the owl is between the spruces & Lake Rd. that goes down to Long Point SP. Hope this clarifies the location for anyone mystified by Lake Rd. fields, Cayuga since there is no Lake _ROAD_ in Cayuga & no fields are along Lake St. in Cayuga. Becky said the owl is easily seen from Rte. 90 but the west wind is really bitter.
