[CT Daily] 10/27/2007 Common Ground-Dove

[Roy Harvey]

 From Dori Sosensky via Lynn James:
10/27 - East Haven, Proto Dr~Ora Ave - The Common Ground Dove made
appearances at 8:30, 9:15, 1:35-40, 3:30, 4:15 & 5 pm.  Thanks to
everyone today for respecting the private property and avoiding the
surveyor's flags.  A couple of ATVers did manage to bring down 2 but
we told them we would we call the police if they continued.

Dori will not be there tomorrow a.m. to give reports (and Roy won't be
home to put them out to CTBirds anyway).  If there is not enough seed
or you would like to contribute some seed, she placed a metal trash
can at the site.  You can find it after the Jersey barrier and before
the concrete abutment.  There is a tree with three trunks with a path
behind it.  If you open it please replace the bungee cords to keep the
animals out.
