ALL:

A warm hike around Back Cove, HP, produced no bird surprises. Despite  
electronic aids, I found no apparent migrants - just chickadees,  
robins, and Song Sparrows. The latter, if anything, were scarcer than  
they have been in winter - the number of singing males may have become  
exclusive. The weather set-up has been such that it may have have  
brought more early migrants to QC and ON than to here.

Nice to see, but not new, were stands of Coltsfoot, and more  
surprising was a patch of Mayflower (Epigaea) in loosening bud.

With numerous scantily dressed young folk sauntering on Metro  
sidewalks and soaking up the sun, why do I feel uneasy about the  
record weather?

Cheers, Ian

Ian McLaren
