SIXTH FREE GUIDED BIRD WALK IS THIS SATURDAY, MAY 6; DESPITE WEATHER PEOPLE GO ON APRIL 29 BIRD WALK AND SEE FIRST WARBLER OF THE SEASON
The first palm warbler of the season (pictured) was seen on the April 29 bird walk at Hills Creek State Park.
For the sixth free guided-bird walk this Saturday, May 6, participants will meet at the Hills Creek State Park office at 111 Spillway Road, Wellsboro, Pa. 16901-9676 and promptly at 8 a.m. drive to the nearby starting location. No registration is required.
Three members of the Tiadaghton Audubon Society, including Gary Tyson who led it, went on the April 29 walk.
“Bad weather kept both birds and birders away,” said Tyson. “It was cold and gloomy but not raining.
“We saw 26 species of birds, including the first palm warbler of the season. These are among the earliest migrating warblers to arrive in our area and will continue heading north. We are expecting to see more of them on upcoming Saturdays.
“We did see one osprey this past Saturday but no broad-winged hawks or bald eagles. Some broad-winged hawks will stay in the county to nest, especially in the canyon area, but most move on farther north,” said Tyson.
The remaining three walks will begin at Hills Creek State Park on Hills Creek Road in Charleston Township, about seven miles northeast of Wellsboro at 8 a.m. on Saturdays, May 13, 20 and 27. The walks are all free and open to the public.

Living in a Digital World
May is mental health awareness month. Numerous agencies across the nation have joined forces to raise awareness about mental health. Together they educate the public and advocate for changes that can support millions of people affected by mental illness.
One such agency is the Children’s Advocacy Center of McKean County. They are bringing an important message to the Bradford Area Public Library on Wednesday, May 3 during their 6:00 PM program, Living in a Digital World. All area parents, grandparents, educators, and other caring adults are invited to join the presentation that will cover a variety of topics related to internet and social media safety.
According to several nationally recognized sources, information overload and excessive social media usage is a prevailing cause of depression among teenagers. Years ago, life was simple with teenagers interacting solely with their nuclear family, a few friends, and their teachers at school. Today’s young adult is bombarded by thousands of messages on a daily basis in our fast-paced society. Consuming too much information, more than an individual needs or the brain can process, puts a strain on emotional and mental health. Information today is readily available and easily accessible; and today’s teen has the internet at their fingertips when they’re equipped with the ever-present smartphone, tablet, or laptop.
Teens benefit from engaged adults who can help them navigate the onslaught of data; adults who establish perimeters of usage, and can discern between irrelevant, negative messages and ones that foster learning and positivity. Wednesday’s program, Living in a Digital World will better equip adults with tools and conversation starters to help teens develop their own abilities of discernment.
This free, in-person program is available to all and does not require registration.

Floyd B. Snyder, 88, of Wellsboro, Pennsylvania
Floyd B. Snyder, 88, of Wellsboro, Pennsylvania, passed away April 28, 2023 at UPMC Wellsboro, Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hospital. He was born on February 11, 1935 in Jersey Shore, to Hazel (Campman) and Samuel Snyder. “Red,” as he was known to many throughout his life, was number 12 of 13 children—7 boys and 6 girls. A few years after his birth the family moved to Wellsboro, the consequence of his father’s new assignment with the New York Central Railroad.
Wellsboro was home the remainder of his life. At age 16 he proudly took a bellhop position at the Penn Wells Hotel. He enjoyed helping guests find their way. That job, and later tending bar, provided backstage views into the Laurel Festival pageant and mysterious out-of-town visitors, which some say included a movie star of the time.
In 1954 he married Mary Ellen Doane and several years later his son Kent was born. By then Floyd was employed at Borden’s can manufacturing division on East Avenue. The mid-1960s found Floyd single again, so he bought the Fleming property at the corner of Cortland Street and Park Place. In 1984 he started work at the glass factory, where he remained until his retirement in 2005. Floyd was a proud member of Local 1001 of the American Flint Glass Workers Union.
When not at the factory or working around his house he was typically walking the town—to the Green, to coffee, to a friend’s house—and greeting others with a smile, a wave, and some with a witty or humorous remark. As an active member of St. Peter’s Catholic Church, he walked many a service as an usher.
Floyd was the last of the 13 siblings to pass. He is survived by his son Kent and wife Marti Minnich, grandson Nathan Snyder and partner Camila Montes de Oca, granddaughter Allison Strong and husband Nate Strong, and many friends, nieces, nephews, and cousins across the country.
Friends and family are invited to pay tribute to Floyd’s life from 6-8pm Friday May 19, 2023, at the Tussey-Mosher Funeral Home 139 Main Street Wellsboro, PA, and to his Memorial Mass 10am Saturday May 20, 2023, at St. Peter’s Catholic Church. To share a memory or condolence with his family visit www.tusseymosher.com.
The family sincerely thanks all the staff at UPMC Wellsboro for the quality care and heartfelt comfort they provided Floyd during his final days.
