Early Spring????

The weather is so mild we are all hoping for spring, but could it be true?:
  • Today Brian Salt of Salthaven Wildlife reported seeing a nursing squirrel!
  • Tundra Swans have arrived south of Kettle Point about a month early (http://foxfm.com/sarnia-ontario-news/early-arrival-for-tundra-swans/) 
  • Red-winged black bird observed in London (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/midd_elgi_observations/message/1803) 
  • Turkey Vulture sightings (http://ontbirds.ca/pipermail/birdalert_ontbirds.ca/Week-of-Mon-20120206/029541.html) 
  • I saw a Red-tailed hawk with nesting material in its talons last Saturday

I hope that all this early spring weather doesn't switch to abnormally cold temperatures that confuse the wildlife even more.
