This has been a cold, late spring in southern Ontario, but things are returning slowly but surely. On Sunday, the cold, leafless beech-maple woods on the Niagara Escarpment bustled with territorial flickers, sapsuckers, and robins, and many kinglets of both kinds flitted about looking for food. Rudy-cr. were in full song. A friend saw a Myrtle Warbler, and I saw my first Hermit Thrush, vultures, and Savannah Sparrows. Grouse were booming. It was nice to have some life in the woods. --Jim Rising -- Name: Jim Rising Mail: Dept. Zoology, Univ.
