Anyone notice any strange bird behavior?  Magnitude 4.7 earthquake in northern New Jersey at 10:23 AM per USGS; felt here in Woodbury about 10:30.  10-15 seconds of pulses rattling things, vibrating house, and shaking lampshades.

North Lake Dr., Hamden:  so, I did feel something.  
But much less than Chris did.  One shift then a couple of seconds of not quite settled.  I barely saw one shade moving.  I really wasn't quite 100% that it was a quake.
And I was sitting at the same table as the last, Washington DC, quake.  
But, no bird behavior noted.
