At 9:30 this a.m at least 24 TVs were in the field between Spring St. &
Seminary St. with wings
outstretched, facing the sun. They stayed for nearly an hour with one at
a time eventually taking
off. I have seen them circling around the tall evergreens immediately
west of where they sat &
wondered if they might be roosting there instead of down in the swamp
behind the high school.
Factory St. pond has been hosting 3 to 5 prs. of wood ducks. Several
buffle heads continue on Mill.
I have birdhouse holes covered to keep out house sparrows until I see
bluebirds & tree swallows.
Daughter Becky, has been out checking osprey nests & finding a lot of
them occupied & several new
NYSEG installed risers on utility poles. During our warm spell early
last mo. a man on Kozy Kove Rd.
put up a very tall pole with nice "regulation size" platform with a
perch pole & "seeded" it with sticks.
