    <span style="font-family: book antiqua,palatino; font-size: 12pt;">Yesterday morning (27 Feb.) while walking to work, I saw a flock of 7 Common Grackles in a tree on Oak Street in central Halifax.&#160; These are the first I&#39;ve seen this year.&#160; New arrivals?&#160; If so, at least 10 days early.</span>

    <span style="font-family: book antiqua,palatino; font-size: 12pt;">My brother in Bedford reported a flock of Robins (15-20) arrived in the garden yesterday - very agitated and presumably hungry, as they lingered around the back&#160;door, where the holly bush still had berries.</span>
