Today, I rescued a little Garter Snake from the middle of my road. It was having a rather hard time moving on the smooth surface. Lucky I did. Right after that, several cars and trucks went by. Yesterday, I found two tiny red efts dead in different parts of the road. Tsk.
After I helped the snake across road, I saw a stripey-breasted baby Chipping Sparrow begging near its parents! Charming. Also saw 2 young, spotty Robins. Donna L.

Saw an adult Smooth Green Snake in our yard this afternoon. They've been breeding here for some years, but we don't see them every day. -Geo -- 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/ -- -- 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/ --
