Ithaca New York and points in between, April and July 2007


Click on the small picture to see a larger, more detailed version. I visited Ithaca twice this year, for my father's memorial service and for my 45th high school reunion (and to finish up with some of my father's property). For the latter trip, I drove stopping to bird in Tennessee, St. Louis, Kansas, and Oklahoma as well in Ithaca New York. Highlights of my bird pix are listed below.
