Rainy Sunday morning, the type of weather that will keep most people in bed, but those who know the secret would have the entire river for themselves. Calm surface of the Danube in front of our canoe reflected willows and tussocks of bright-yellow Flag Iris. Black-crowned Night Herons were foraging from roots protruding from the banks. From a dry tree above the river branch came the deep and throaty call of a pair of Common Ravens.

A large concentration of eagles makes for spectacular viewing and I wanted to share my excitement with you after a morning at Boundary Bay to the south of Vancouver in BC. It was an early start and the Bald Eagles were evident before I even alighted from the bus at 96 th St. I was already into double figures as the bus pulled up at Matthew’s Interchange.

For many people around the world, the coming weekend carries spiritual meaning, symbolic of rebirth and renewal. And chocolate bunnies. And colorful eggs. And lots and lots of birds. Celebrate your way! I have much to celebrate, as my family and I are embarked on a Spring Break sojourn to Panama by way of Canada. Expect my Best Bird of the Weekend to be Neotrop-tastic.

You believe in birthday birds , right? By “believe,” of course, I mean you desire them and seek them out to commemorate another year of life. If you haven’t yet embraced the theory or practice of birthday birds, I recommend that, next time your special day rolls around, you make it a point to pursue a seasonally appropriate species you don’t regularly see.

We have had one of the wettest “Wet Seasons” this year and it has been a delight to see the land look so full of life.

Most of the bush tracks that are usually accessible by four-wheel drive are still flooded, but can be accessed on foot and the ephemeral lakes have filled up this year.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is considering changing the status of the endangered Black-capped Vireo : it has proposed delisting it entirely.
