Re:[cayugabirds-l] Snowy Owl, Location/Correction/ NOT Lake Road, Cayuga

2015-03-23 Thread John and Fritzie Blizzard
Laura Stenzler  my daughter, Becky, are_just south of Pumpkin Hill 
Bistro_ (/south of Aurora/) looking at the owl sitting atop a snow drift 
in the field on the_west side of Rte. 90_. The co-ordinates given below 
are correct BUT the location Cayuga, NY is not.

Becky said a row of spruce trees is just south of the  apple orchard  
the owl is between the spruces  Lake Rd. that goes down to Long Point SP.

Hope this clarifies the  location for anyone mystified by Lake Rd. 
fields, Cayuga since there is no Lake _ROAD_ in Cayuga  no fields are 
along Lake St. in Cayuga.

Becky said the owl is easily seen from Rte. 90 but the west wind is 
really bitter.

The eBird location ..., Cayuga, New York refers to a place in Cayuga County, 
New York State. EBird recognizes counties and states and adds them to all U.S. 
locations, even if you already use them in the name you give to a location. 
EBird does not sort out other municipalities to add to the name, but you may 
use them in the name you choose.
