The Sharp-shinned Hawk, Bonaparte's Gulls, Savannah Sparrows, and Swamp 
Sparrows were observed at the Lick Creek Bottoms Wildlife Management Area unit 
located at Skinner Crossroads--i.e., the intersection of Highway 348, North 
Mohawk Road, and South Mohawk Road.

The Common Loon was a major surprise, as this species is quite rare in Greene 
County, which lacks significant habitat for loons.  This bird was flying west, 
perhaps toward Cherokee Lake or Douglas Lake.
