That steal the goose from off the common,
But let the greater villain loose
That steals the common from the goose.

Would a cold front be the winds are from the north? I don't know how to
read weather maps very well. We have some north winds forecast for Sat
and Sun. Would you then say that Monday will be a good migration day?
Where would I go to watch and what time of day? Also what types of
birds would I be looking for? Shore birds, ducks, etc or warbler,
sparrow types? I will put a location recommendation request on the
NatureNB line as well as the NatureNS. <br>
