The owners of the aggregate quarry on the hill above the 180th street marsh have purchased the two properties to the north and are seeking a permit to expand the rock quarry. At this point I have heard nothing to indicate that the Vermillion town supervisors think that a mining operation is in any way not compatible with a sensitive wetland habitat even if it is a waystation for rare migrants or endangered and threatened breeding birds and turtles.
Good birds: I have a report of a Ross's Goose flying over Cedar Avenue near Farmington High School. I don't know if the observer was able to report this bird on eBird.
