I thought you wanted to know if we see a humingbird in our yard. We did today Friday 21 August 2009.

We had a ruby throat here a couple weeks ago and he was around again tonight working over the nasturtiums
and other flowers. Last seen about 8:30pm.
Grimshaw is about 520k northwest of Edmonton.

We saw our last humming bird on the evening of the 17th and none since. Last year it was the 23rd!!
I travel outside the city every day and have been seeing hundreds of geese goin over, esp. at St. Albert. As well as a few cranes. There have been huge flocks of crows and black birds, thousands of them up by Redwater.

Sounds great! We’ll be there with the family to celebrate and meet John Acorn. The kids are excited to meet him.
See you tomorrow.

This sounds like a great trail to follow.
We love to find and hike trails to see the fall colors like this.
It would be great to see a black bear or wolf!
In a recent Edmonton Journal account, it was stated that no Bohemian Waxwings were seen during the annual count. I would like you to know that Bonnyville is teeming with the birds – they fly in flocks of 100’s as they do every year. This year is different. They came to eat the bountiful mountain ash berries and crabapples, only this year these trees were frozen in the early winter snap. The birds are hungry – and are flying around trying to find food. The mountain ash berries are being swept up off sidewalks, and the birds have tried eating them but merely spit them out when they find they are not edible. I wonder if all these birds will survive the winter? Marjorie Froise
