Does anything say 'happy holidays' like a large, plush llama?

This year, for the Star's Happy Holidays Raffle, the prize is the aforementioned llama. Entries are being accepted through Sunday, Dec. 19, at several locations across the South Fork.

The Marshall & Sons Service Center at 701 Montauk Highway in Montauk, Stuart's Seafood Market at 41 Oak Lane in Amagansett, are taking part. Smokin' Wolf at 199 Pantigo Road and VJS Studio at 24 Gingerbread Lane are the places to go in East Hampton. In Bridgehampton, entries are being accepted at English Country Home, 26 Snake Hollow Road, and in Southampton at Fowler's Garden Shop, 175 North Sea Road.

Finally, if you're having a hard time convincing your child to go to the dentist, use the raffle as an enticement: you can submit your name at Hampton Pediatric Dental, 97 North Main Street, in Southampton.

No purchase is necessary to enter the raffle.

From the late 1980s until the early 2000s, it would not have been unusual to see Sigrid Owen near Fort Pond or Hook Pond — large net or perhaps a bag of cracked corn in hand — on a mission. Ms. Owen, who would have been 98 on Feb. 7, died on May 23 of last year.

Time for the Great Backyard Bird Count!

The ground will be covered in white for this year’s Great Backyard Bird Count, which starts Friday and lasts through Sunday, and that means feeders could be especially active and potentially yield some surprises.
