Re:[nysbirds-l] Slightly off topic - AMKE - Buster stolen - UPDATE Buster Returned

Volunteers for Wildlife posted on their face book page a little more than an hour ago that Buster was returned to their facility in Locust Valley. He is unharmed, but HUNGRY! As promised, no further information about who or why he was taken is available. Understandably everyone is pretty happy.

[nysbirds-l] Pink-footed Goose yes

I went back at around 4:45pm and was at the VCP Parade Grounds to about 5pm and the Pink-footed Goose was there and easy to see.  The flock was smaller than this am and the Snow Goose was gone, but the Pink-footed was there, nice.  A beautiful bird. Andrew Andrew v. F. Block Consulting
