We drove all the way to Winnipeg and back about 8 hours driving in all. The snow is all gone most places except near Oakburn where we live! I suppose further north and in the park there is still snow as well.
There were quite a few crows beside the road. Most sloughs did not have birds on them but we did see a few Canada geese and the odd duck. At one slough near Winnipeg there were a group of herring gulls. I enclose a photo of a herring gull. I saw a bird that I could not identify. It may have been an osprey
When we got home red polls and juncos were still feeding the bird feeder
