First good sighn of new arrivals was on TuesdayApril 1st in the early =
evening.
25+ C. Grackels, 10-12 RWBB, and a few BHCB arrived @ my feeders.

Wensday a few new Song Sparr.

This morning as I expected from a look at the weather map last night =
(clear skys and strong W-SW winds) we lots of new arrivals. 50+ RWBB, =
20-25 Juncos (where there has been none), a few Chipping Sparrows, 10-12 =
Robins, 20+ new Song Sparrows, 4 Savannah Sparr.,

Missing is most of my AT Sparr. flock. there was 20+ yesterday and today =
3-4 (these might be new migrants as well).

Redpoll flock has been regularly changing as well. Gone are the weeks of =
trying to feed 450+  (thank god) but as of late I'll have 75-100 for a =
couple days and then a few days with only 10-15, then build up to =
150-200 for several days then none for 4-5 days. followed again by a =
build up then fly out. I believe that these flocks are returning north =
again. You could almost get a flavour from each flock with the changing =
#'s of each of the 3 most common races within.

Rafts of Ducks along the shore with all the Scooters well represented, =
along with the massing C. Eiders. Ring Necked ducks are back in force =
