The SW winds brought Seneca County its first Turkey Vulture of the
year.  Had a soaring bird yesterday near Lowell in the northern part
of the county.  Not unprecedented but early for the county.  Used to
be they first showed up around mid-March.  The last 10 years or so,
its been late February to early March.  Woodcocks should be back and
singing soon!!
