First one I have heard of this year, but last year seemed to be a banner year for them near by. Where was that one?

NICE!

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

No luck at Plum Island for me.... I scouted the whole area and spoke with many hard core birders... There was a sighting at Salisbury the previous day

There are a few Bald eagles around. Saw one the other day sitting on the ice at Wallum Lake.

Never seen a snowy, but I'd love to. I'm thinking Gooseberry would be a good place to look? Some kind of owl scared the crap out of me out there one night last fall...

If you like to see a hawk or owls swoop down then attached a small length of twine to a mouse against a contrasting background.
