Spring migration was evident with good numbers of Robins ~300 from Braeshore to Lyons Brook. There were over 100 Ring-billed Gulls, mostly in Lyons Brook. An immature Glaucous Gull remains at Pier C in Pictou- present for a couple of weeks now. A total of 19 Iceland Gulls were observed from 5 locations. There were 2 imm Bonaparte's Gulls at North Nova seafoods near Caribou. Caribou and Pictou Harbours had over 500 Red-breasted Mergansers, somewhat fewer than past springs. Grackles, Red-winged Blackbirds and Song Sparrows were widespread. Double-crested Cormorants numbered 32 this morning at the Pictou Causeway. First spring arrivals were a handful seen by Amber Vines Mar. 22. Pussy willows were seen in a number of locations although there were flurries for quite a bit of the morning. A few Crows were observed carrying nest material and eagles were seen on nests at Seaview Cemetery, Caribou I., Lyons Brook, Durham and Munroes I. cheers Ken --Boundary_(ID_DGTPN1YITatA4+oC49dqqg) Content-type: text/html; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META name=GENERATOR content="MSHTML 8.00.6001.19019"> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Ken McKenna<BR>Box 218 Stellarton NS<BR>B0K 1S0<BR>902 752-7644<BR></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi all</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial>I did a little birding this morning (April 2) in the New Glasgow-Caribou I-Lyons Brook area.
