A welcome surprise!
Father and Daughter Reunited After Tour in Afghanistan
Waiting for her in the front seat was her father, who had just come home from his second tour in Afghanistan.

FRIENDS OF SCHODACK ISALND- On Saturday, Sept. 29th, from 9 am to 4 pm, we're going to be at Schodack Island to do some hands on conservation work and everyone is invited! (Rain Date is Sun, Sept 30th.) This work is being sponsored by a TogetherGreen Grant from Toyota and National Audubon. We've planned the day in collaboration with Casey Holzworth, NYS Park Biologist.
The Friends of Schodack Island and graduate students from SUNY Albany will be involved, too.
Our goal is to cut all oriental bittersweet vines that are 3" and
greater in diameter in a 98 acre area around the nesting and roosting
sites of cerulean warblers and bald eagles. As you probably know, bald
eagles have been re-established in NYS after a lot of intensive work
by DEC. Cerulean warbler numbers have declined more than 70% since the
'60s and they are a species of special concern to Audubon.We will
provide lunch, snacks, drinks, and a gift for each participant. We
will also do our best to make the day as rewarding as possible. There
is poison ivy on the island, but not so much in the southern part where
we'll be working. www.capitalregionaudubon.org
