Birds are Back Celebrity Challenge
More information on this program, and the Ecology Action Centre's other work around bird species.
Migratory and songbirds are harbingers of spring for many. Unfortunately, they are also on the front line of environmental change. Air, water and light pollution as well as climate change are wreaking havoc on our bird populations. We've invited Halifax and Nova Scotian celebrities to join us in spotting these species this spring.
Some items posted here and on the accompanying Facebook page may also be posted on the Ecology Action Centre site.
Many thanks to Richard Stern for the photos.

Greetings from Southwestern Ontario! Although I'm on tour and not in Nova Scotia, I'm happy to report I'm still keeping my eyes and ears open for birds: I've seen a Mourning Dove, a House Sparrow, a male and a female Mallard Duck, and a Fox Sparrow (I think...might have been a Chipping Sparrow). Sadly, none of these are on the list. Ah-ha: a perfect illustration of the difference between "birdwatching" and "birding". Guess I should get my hiking boots on!
