Good to have you aboard, James!

Pat Kelly & I had a male yellowthroat at Cape Split today on a not- 
very-nice day -- perhaps Pat will send us a list of the birds he saw  
and heard, including a peregrine falcon seen at the trailhead (flying  
west along the Split peninsula) just before I arrived to the join our  
small group of 6, including Bernard Forsythe who is now more famous  
than before, thanks to Joel Jacobson of the Herald a day or two ago  
-- Liz Doull provided us with the article yesterday).

   Oodles of spring beauties (some infested with rust fungi like last  
year) and red trilliums (& lots of pale whitish red trilliums), lots  
of strawberry and blue violet flowers at the tip of the Split, one  
patch of goldthread in bloom, fair numbes of my favourite, Dutchman's  
breeches, alder in bloom, hazelnut all finished with flowering, red  
elderberry and toothwort and rosy twisted-stalk not quite in bloom,  
lots of tall fiddleheads of various ferns, etc.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
