** Some PURPLE FINCHES [Roselin pourpré] did stay around certain feeder yards all winter but most moved southerly, but not far. It’s now time for the advance guard to start moving north. Jane Leblanc was visited by a handsome male to her St. Martins yard on Tuesday in a bit of a snow flurry.

 

** Yolande Leblanc was pleased to have a BARRED OWL [Chouette rayée] visit her yard on Sunday to make it a new yard bird, however little did she suspect that it would be visiting 3 days in a row as it was there again on Monday and Tuesday. One has to wonder if this bird has more than food on mind and is possibly establishing a territory in that area.

 

** There are a few webinars coming up that I assume some have registered for but I am adding a few below. The “Wildlife Photo Basics” is happening at 4:00 pm today, with the notice below:

There seems to be a lot of great presentations on Zoom since Covid-19 has taken over that makes for a pleasant hour of hearing about subjects of interest.
