The Bald Eagles referred to in the previous post were around yesterday.  So were the Turkey Vultures spying on that carp carcass.  But not photo opportunities.   I suspect that the Otter went hungry … or got another carp!

We are experiencing an late spring snowstorm now.  After its passage we can start looking for the first of the migrating warblers (see http://www.ofo.ca/ofo-docs/Spring%20Warbler%20Migration%20Guide.pdf ) and for the arrival of the Sandhill Cranes.
