March 16, 2008 - They may not be pretty up close, but this afternoon, while watching the sap bubbling in the sugar bush, I saw our first turkey vulture of the season - yippee - it was soaring in a brilliant blue sky! The weather today is warm (+4C) and it is sunny with a bit of a breeze. Sap is running, the first grackles of the season and a flock of starlings was also observed feeding on the gravel roadside. Spring is in the air - but there's still over 45 cm of snow on the ground in the sugar bush.
