Bird Protection Quebec "Thursday's Thrushes and Thrashers" Report

The first Thursday's Thrushes and Thrashers beginners field trip took place at this morning at Ile Bizard and 10 birders enjoyed a glorious May-like morning in April with temperatures near +20.

We were treated to looks at Ruby-crowned kinglet, Barred owl and a very cooperative American Bittern. A total of 38 species were observed.

Thanks to everyone who came out and to David Mulholland and Gay Gruner for their help. -  Barbara Macduff
