My cat cody has gone missing in the Groton Connecticut area near the town hall/fitch middle school area. He is a very friendly cat, and has a snipped ear, and it fixed. He may or may not have half a tail as we found a black cat tail in our backyard, but just the tip of it.

I am also from the Northeast, and seeing architecture that reminded me of New York and Connecticut and even my home state of Maine beneath southern Live Oaks and Magnolias felt a bit odd. An Eastern Towhee sang in the distance, but I felt more excited about the calls of an Eastern Wood-Pewee – my first of the year. But I liked it.
