Hi all,
Yesterday
After reading these posts I looked out to see if I can see any, when I scanned
my eyes towards Vet School there was a loose flock of about 40 to 50 flying
over the Vet tower. I quickly watched them with binocs. They were sparkling in
sunlight!
Cool! A good way to start day!

There is a big flock of birds may be 100 birds flying between vet school and

Hi all,
First of all, after reading John's post, when I suggested that CBC should do
something about hunting was not to stop hunting, but to designate some
locations on the lake to be free from being hunting locations, so both birders
and birds can enjoy some peace.
Why is it wrong if
.
Perhaps interested people can communicate privately about next steps?
Thanks.

So far about 2000 crows have headed towards Robert Purcell. If they went beyond
that I can't see. Now the stream has thinned out a bit (4.19 PM). They came
from beyond Vet school, or may be from dump or from fields around.
By now it is almost over (4.21 PM).
