My first Yellow Warbler of the year was singing across from my place (1798 Young’s Pt.Road, Lakefield) this afternoon. (Note: This may be a record early date, the earliest previous date being April 24th according to Sadler’s “Our Heritage of Birds” – D.M.) Location: Lakefield Observer: Myles Falconer

The flooded field at the corner of Smith-Ennismore Fifth Line and Centre Line resonated with calling leopard frogs, chorus frogs and several American Toads. Location: Peterborough Observer: Drew Monkman
