Snowy Owl land on the long walkway to the beach.

From Steve Broker:
02/23/14 - Woodbridge, West Rock Ridge, afternoon trip to the ridge
top -- West Rock is a 7-mile long, north-south trending trap rock
ridge in the towns of New Haven, Hamden, Woodbridge, and Bethany.  The
West Rock Common Ravens are nesting again on a well-hidden,
inaccessible, and undisclosed cliff ledge, first used in 2003.
