*By Rick Wright*

*Tuesday, March 31, 2015, 6pm*

*The Arsenal, Central Park, Fifth Avenue at 64th Street, third-floor

One of the marvels of the Internet is that every one of us now has access
to the first descriptions of nearly all of the world's birds, material that
lay hidden for years or for centuries in libraries scattered around the
world. Join Rick Wright--author, lecturer, and guide of "Birds and Art"
tours across the globe--for an exploration of the surprising and amusing
stories of discovery that those resources preserve.
This series has been made possible by the support of Claude and Lucienne

[Willie D'Anna and Betsy Potter]

Big numbers of SNOW GEESE were evident on the Lake Ontario plain in western
NY today:

 

In the village of Lyndonville, 320+ flew over

On Yates Center Rd, 250 flew over

In the Town of Carlton, on Stillwater Rd, which runs into Oak Orchard River
Rd, 5350 in a corn stubble field.; 20 TUNDRA SWANS overhead.

In the Town of Somerset, on Burgess Rd, 142 on the ground with a couple
dozen TUNDRA SWANS.

 

3 CACKLING GEESE along Niagara-Orleans Countyline Rd.

 

Good birding!
