We did hear two different singing birds, and saw one singing from the airport fence. Then, the airport police caught up with us and wanted to know what we were doing! I told them we were out to listen for the beautiful song of the meadowlark. In the end, 6 police cars showed up (airport and county sheriff), writing down all my details and asking the same questions. What a story. In the end, the airport police said, if you give them a call beforehand and tell them you are coming, you are allowed to birdwatch. But NO cameras! I suggested to them to add that, to the NO TRESPASSING signs. --sincerely, Magnus Fiskesjö, PhD -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
