Hi all- Couldn't be housebound all day, so took one of my housemates ( a visiting nursing professor from China) for a drive about. We went by Sullivan's (nothing new to report), Fishermen's Reserve in E. Passage ( good lobster sandwiches at the end of the road), a surprisingly empty harbour ( a half dozen Red breasted Mergansers, some Common Eider ( about thirty scattered along), 6-8 Scaup (didn't scope, so not sure if any Lesser were there), and a single Song Sparrow at Hartlen beach area. Conrad's Beach was very windy and quiet of birds. Again, RBMergansers, eiders and Herring Gulls. No early Piping Plover, or Ipswitch that we could find. Not much surf, so no surfers at Lawrencetown. I took some pictures of the road work there. Lovely day to be outside. There have bee Snowdrops in bloom for over a week (south end of Beaufort) and I (like Pat) also noticed my first Coltsfoot of the spring in Halifax. Last evening a *Purple Finch* in south end Robie Street.
