        A few highlights from a hike at Blomidon Provincial Park, 27 =
April 2014. Nothing too exceptional to note, but lots of spring-firsts, =
and one new personal observation.=20


        1 Turkey Vulture (1st I've seen in Kings Co) riding on a thermal =
south of park check-in office =
(http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=3DS18113821)


        5 spring beauties in flower (Claytonia caroliniana)


        Large patches of wild leek (Allumim tricoccum)=20


        2 well-developed purple trillium (Trillium erectum).


        It's worth noting that the "Fairy Shrimp Pond" (Does anyone know =
if this pond has a name?) was very very high. The water was well over =
much of the surrounding path.


        Cheers,
