2011-05-18 Thread Mark Chao

While driving along route 34 in Cayuga County, I spotted a COMMON NIGHTHAWK about a mile north of Scipio Center. The time was approximately 5:30 pm. I think that area drains westward to Great Gully, or maybe southward to Big Salmon Creek... -Geo Geo Kloppel Bowmaker Restorer 227 Tupper
