Indigo bunting — about two weeks before the May 6 meeting, someone brought a male Indigo bunting in to Marilyn Campbell, owner of the Pet World in the Ellis Bros. The bird had been mauled by a cat and died soon after.

Lorna Knox also saw the bird there. Keep your eyes open! *****************************************
