Hi Jo-Anne

I was at Aquitaine / Maplewood between 9am and 10:30, too bad we missed each other.  Didn't see a thing at Maplewood except the Coopers nest with occupant.

At Aquitaine the first thing I saw was GBH on west shore in the weeds.  WOW!!.  He was feeding.  Hope he/(she) stays at Aquitaine for nesting. Will post a pic in the Bird Photo section..

Went to Rattray yesterday.  Didn't see much there except 2 Mute Swan nests c/w tennants.
