**Dave Miller spotted a CEDAR WAXWING and AMERICAN ROBIN in the area Salisbury Treatment Plant Lagoon on Tuesday morning enjoying the winter clinging apples.  

**The RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS indeed seem to be moving in from. Louise Richard's comments as she was reading yesterday's report of fresh looking red-winged blackbirds at John Inman's, she looked out her Sackville window to see 3 male red-winged blackbirds in her yard.  

**A second day in a row for a NORTHERN SHRIKE.  Aldo Dorio photographed one at his home in Neguac on Tuesday.  

**Brian Coates again shares a photo of the Riverview GYRFALCON that overwintered there in 1992. The photo attached would have been taken 25 years ago today and shows the partial open wing pattern. 

**Yet another cock RING-NECKED PHEASANT strutting its spring male finery.  Louis Melanson shares a photo of one in his Cape Brûlée neighbourhood, posing for the camera, on his patio.
