I take a broader view of the Cayuga basin and harken back to the days of
Pangaea when I think that it is safe to say that the entire region shared a
common drainage.
Given the above interpretation, I am free to mention my experience this
weekend at Bombay hook NWR on Delaware bay. Frigid
Last night while all arctic hell was breaking loose, a brave mourning dove
was cooing outside my window. This irrepressible bird, like the rest of us,
must be yearning for Spring or was he mourning our eternal winter?
