A barred owl with a broken beak takes flight from a branch along Line Road in Greene Friday afternoon. According to Charity Bates who lives on the road, the owl has been in the area for several weeks and is abnormally active during the day. "We are not sure if it's a he or she, but we've named it Esther. She's quite a local celebrety as people stop every day to take photos and the schoolbus even slows down so the kids can take a look at her when they drive past." said Bates.

Skaters enjoy public skating on Jan 1 at The Norway Savings Bank Arena in Auburn.
