This Day in History: 1962-03-23

The Fyke Nature Association meeting was transferred to the Grace Baptist Church because the furnace in their usual meeting place, the Ramsey Town Hall was broken.  President David Leach announced that the next field trip would be to the Great Swamp in Morris County.  Members were alerted to the fact that a European goldfinch had been signed in the yard of Talbot Dunn on East Allendale Ave.  It was the first local sighting of this Eastern hemisphere bird.
