From Charlie Barnard:
11/27/13 - Stratford, Sikorsky Airport -- 2:50 PM; 1 Snowy Owl visible
in the large field on the western side of the airport. It was quite
far out and could not be seen from the pullover out on the road. It
was seen from the pullover within the airport. The eastern side of the
airport was checked with no luck. I checked Milford Point from
Sniffen's Lane in Stratford, as well as from Short Beach in Stratford,
but could not spot a Snowy from either location.

SNOWY OWL on the edge of the tarmack. We first viewed it from Oak
Bluff ave, then closest view was from Lordship Blvd. Still being seen
at 4:15 PM.

continues another day at our feeder. Yesterday we also saw a coyote
in the woods behind our home.
From Brian Kleinman:
11/27/13 - East Granby backyard feeder -- A nice adult WHITE-CROWNED
SPARROW has been frequenting my feeder for the past week. I usually
get them every year but not this late in the season.
From Glenn Williams:
11/27/13 - New London, Greens Harbor Beach -- adult LESSER
BLACK-BACKED GULL.
From Nick Bonomo:
11/26/13 - Windsor, Windsor-Bloomfield landfill -- a nice showing of
Iceland Gulls; there were at least four first-cycle birds there around
2pm, varying from darkish to quite white. That's a good number for
late November.
