Last Tuesday (03/23/10) only one Merlin was observed in section  93. I was
out of town for the weekend and when I arrived Monday  evening no Merlin
were observed. This is a week or two earlier  than in the previous years
observations.
I also observed a Savannah Sparrow, a first for the cemetery. Sandpit ponds
 had a pair of Mallards and 2 Red-breasted Mergansers. A Screech Owl was
observed  and was calling on and off for a half an hour.
