Yes. Yesterday, the 21st Feb., mid morning, an immature TV landed on an apple tree stub not 20 feet from the house and several bird feeders, then was "challenged" by our overly courageous black cat which scaled to the perch in a few seconds, dislodging the intruder in a successful defense of his territory. The TV's takeoff more than enveloped the cat by its wingspan. Live and learn?

Seems a little early, I usually see them around the first week of March. They roost in the big dead tree by the Senior Living Center on Shelburne Rd. In the summer I've counted as many as 25 in that tree.
