Hi All
</div>
<div>
It was such a lovely day I like a lot of other folks went to
</div>
<div>
Graves Island for a walk. Just a little snow in shaded spots
</div>
<div>
and no ice.
</div>
<div>
A fair number of birds around. A couple of good flocks of Cockeyes -
</div>
<div>
heard their song before I saw them. They were about to fly out to sea
</div>
<div>
for the night so were restless. At least 50 but hard to be sure as they were moving about.
</div>
<div>
In Feb sea birds seem to depart and come back in March but there was a good selection today.
</div>
<div>
A few buffleheads and a few Red breasted mergs inn there spring finery. Not a prettier
</div>
<div>
duck than they are. Seemed well paired off.
</div>
<div>
Some grebes also - mostly horned with a little group of 3 Red necked. and a Guillemot or 2.
</div>
<div>
Loons seemed plenty = maybe 6 which is a good score for there. One was a smaller loon,
</div>
<div>
very dark with a light bill. Perhaps a Red Throated but I couldn't be sure. The loons were feasting
</div>
<div>
on Green crabs. They know how to eat them. Crack them open and eat a piece at a time.
</div>
<div>
No fun for the crab  but lobsters are delicious!
</div>
<div>
Enjoy the late winter
</div>
<div>
