Today at 09:15 this morning=2C at Dayspring the female bald eagle was sitti=
ng in the nest and the male brought food=2C which is an indication that she=
 is ready to lay her egg/eggs or has done so and is incubating.  This pair =
last year was a week or two ahead of most other nests reported and seems to=
 have gotten an early start again. =20

Dorothy Poole and I did some birding today.  A pair of white-winged crossbi=
lls along River Road near Milton was a nice treat.  There has been a red-th=
roated loon in Liverpool Bay all winter and it was present today.

We had a number of American robins in Liverpool. =20

On the way home I had a ruffed grouse beside the road in Cherry Hill.

There were three purple sandpipers at Western Head.
