Lots of Spring time Activity

Many Flickers were busy finding mates this weekend. The males were 
trying to look their best by showing off their yellow shafts to the lady Flickers.

Other courting behaviour was obvious with several pair of Tree Swallows 
at the Point Lands, some of them touching bills with their chosen mate.

Female Red-winged Blackbirds have returned to nesting grounds in Canatara Park.

Still waters early Saturday morning created a calm reflection.

This year's Coopers Hawk's nest started out as a very rough looking squirrel's nest.
They have since added considerable stability to the original structure.

The local pair of Coopers Hawks dined on Starling last evening.

Yesterday on a neighbour's lawn, 2 Mallard Drakes were discussing who was the best candidate to get a date with the hen. I hope she had a say in the decision!!
