MARCH 2, 2012 - Today my single overwintering song sparrow suddenly  
became three! (2 new arrivals?).

Sherman Bleakney in Wolfville mentioned seeing up to 100 robins  
lately, and Pat  & I a few days ago saw about 10+ robins and then  
about 75+ unidentified waxwings flying past our yard in Wolfville.   
Other people nearby have also been reporting robins for over a week.

One more interesting observation: my single cock pheasant seems to  
have only one spur on its lower legs -- I wonder how unusual this  
might be?

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
