Had my first wood frogs in Pictou Co. this morning May 3 and again this even=
ing along the caribou ferry road TCH 106. I heard a single peeper along same=
 road 2 days ago but there was a beginning chorus there this evening.
Rick ferguson, Emily Gillis(Kendell) and I ran the Lorne to Landsdowne owl r=
oute last night may 1. Although it is as 14C when we left town it was 4C at s=
tart and -1C at end of survey. This is the latest date I remember running th=
e route. Despite this we heard no frogs at all. The evening was quite bright=
 with a full moon and there was a little wind on 3 of the middle stops.=20
We tallied 3 Barred Owls and a single
Great Horned Owl. At one stop 2 Barred
Owls flew in and called right beside the car. Always a great thrill.=20
We also heard 9 Woodcock and a
single snipe as well as a few coyotes and saw 3 porcupines. Missed having Em=
ily's father Charlie with us this year but it was great to have Emily along f=
or her first full route.=20
Cheers
