Updated the list with WW pewee from Len as well as black swift from Gord. I also added Cooper's hawk and yellow warbler from my place yesterday.

A male Lazuli Bunting was giving his full-throated song on The Appel Rd. dyke in Agassiz yesterday. Haven't seen one for quite a while.

Not sure if Hermit or Swainson’s Thrush have been sighted. I had a glimpse of what I believe is a Hermit Thrush on May 3 at the Great Blue Heron Reserve. I apologize for the poor pic... one chance to focus through a whole lot of underbrush to get this shot and then of course it was gone.  Hermit Thrush (Catharus guttatus) by Gabi Cuff, on Flickr |

I would agree with Hermit. No lighter "bridge" between the eye and bill, also some reddish is visible on the tail.

I just watched a Great Horned Owl get mobbed by about 30 crows. They were causing such a commotion that half the neighbourhood came out to watch. I can still hear them continuing the chase off in the distance.
Check the Facebook group page to see a video of the whole gang doing a flyby!

A Loggerhead Shrike was found at Hope Airport yesterday. Nearer the East end of the grassy runway. It stayed way out so scope views and a picture Joel got which shows it’s bold mask. Hopefully it can be found again

The Bank Swallows are back at the Ross Road gravel pit, and I had the House Wren again at Sumas prairie, as well as a Sharp-shinned Hawk. John Vooys
