Many of us are not on social media but we get to hear about it and are often sent screenshots. Currently hot on social media:

The 7 days a week, morning to night hours of the marijuana/cannabis/pot shop in Tarrytown whether or not the hours will be the same at the shop here in Croton---"or rather Harmon, which seems the be the area selected for multi family-affordable housing and this sort of business". 

Hours for the Tarrytown dispensary are:

Monday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM
Tuesday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM
Wednesday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM
Thursday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM
Friday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM
Saturday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM
Sunday: 9:30 AM – 9:30 PM

Location 51 Main St, Tarrytown, NY 10591 -- also discussion of who the Croton LLC principals are....No point in discussing the rest since the village never opted out and the pot shop seems inevitable; we'll leave it to those on social media

CORNELL LAB--THE DEFINITIVE BIRD INFO SITE---JOIN OUR NEW STUDY ON PLASTICS IN BIRD NESTS

Have you ever seen a piece of a plastic grocery bag woven into a robin’s nest? Or perhaps a section of fishing line woven into the lining of a catbird nest? Increasingly, birds are integrating anthropogenic materials into their nests—but does using these materials matter? Plastic items may pose an entanglement risk, or they may make certain nests more visible to predators. On the other hand, there may be some benefits that are influencing birds’ selection of these materials. You can help us investigate potential relationships between plastics in nests and reproductive success. READ MORE AT Join Our New Study on Plastics in Bird Nests - NestWatch
