Saw 5 snow geese close to the road just east of the potato building
along Rte. 31 Mon. about 5:45 p.m.. Sky was already getting dark before
the storm so I couldn't see much other than dozens of gulls.
At Mud Lock I saw one bald eagle in the tree near the new nest & an
osprey on the nest atop the old elec. platform. Another osprey landed on
the power line with something that he wasn't able to get off the talons
of his left foot. When the storm hit, he flew off towards the woods
across from the lock.
Then the storm hit & a man with 3 fishing poles in the water & one in
his hand, just threw a blanket over his head & body & continued to fish.
I don't quite know how to label such (?) dedication (?).
I made my way rather slowly in the pouring rain to Union Springs with
flashers on from Cayuga.
