**John Inman shares a photo of two mourning doves
side-by-side to show the plumage colour variation in this species.
John also noticed a small group of Canada geese
fly over, which is very possibly an advance guard of migrants.
**Fred and Lynn Dube took a drive over Caledonia Mountain
on Sunday. There was very little to observe. They saw two black- capped chickadees,
a pileated woodpecker, and a ruffed grouse. They noticed some
clear-cutting and wondered if maybe that is having an impact on the birds in
the area, as usually you would get a nice variety there.
Evening grosbeaks
have been observed in their yard recently, and a photo has been included.
