John, can you direct those of us who might want to follow
As a follow-up to Anne's request, I'd also love to hear about any evidence
showing that Goshawks are on territory in January, and that flushing

I'm just suggesting that an overdoes of caution for the sake of a
species that is known to be adverse to human disturbance is worth

Oak Island, the picnic/boat launch area at the south end of Oak St (next to the
Community Center). To get to Oak St, head west on 5 20 from
For the past several days we have been treated to LOTS of Cardinals--all at one
time, at our feeders. By 'lots' I mean, we reached a high number of 22 today!!
They all seem to come at once at dusk. While we try to count them quickly,
