Hello All,

Just returned from a walk on the Wellinton Dyke, 130+/- Canada geese  
landed on the corn field to the west of the paved road, none were neck  
banded, smaller or in any way different than our regular geese.

As I was returning home I saw Richard Rand plowing a field on the  
north side of Starrs Point Road almost across from the Planter's  
Barracks. He was being followed by many gulls. Most of the gulls were  
ringed billed ~100, there was one all white Iceland (first year), a  
few Herring, three adult Lesser Blacked backed, and not one Greater  
Black Backed.

On the Wellington Dykes I heard my first Savannah Sparrow of the spring.

George Forsyth
