Littering is on the rise.

In many parks, trash is being left on the beach faster than our staff can clean it up.

Practice “leave no trace,” and do not leave anything on the beach. https://t.co/OM4huAHcSD

@CBCOntarioToday I've been keeping to a normal schedule. Same time in bed, same time up in the morning. Staying active helps (I'm doing 100s of laps in my basement while listening to podcasts).

[Joe Fortin @FortinJoe]

@Shakespur @DistancingFest Stay safe!

[Frank Izaguirre @BirdIzLife]

College cancelled. Travel cancelled. Sports cancelled. Spring migration NOT CANCELLED.

Thank God for birbs bc this shit scary and stressful. Hope everyone is safe.

[Joe Fortin @FortinJoe]

Spring is in the air! I saw some honest-to-goodness GRASS today. This Varied Thrush, however, kinda got in the way.

(Yes, the Haliburton Varied Thrush is still at @BarkLakeLC . Many folks stopping by have been worried he's flown the coop. As you see, he's still here!)

[Joe Fortin @FortinJoe]

Just some of the birds that I spotted during the #GreatBackyardBirdCount. In total I saw Blue Jays, Tree Sparrows, Chickadees, Hairy Woodpeckers, and a lone Varied Thrush. @BirdsCanada @Team_eBird @WBU_Inc

[Joe Fortin @FortinJoe]

DO IT!

Had a buddy helping me with the #GreatBackyardBirdCount this morning. If this Red Squirrel can help do #CitizenScience than surely you can too! @BirdsCanada @Team_eBird @WBU_Inc

[Joe Fortin @FortinJoe]

Today is the #GreatBackyardBirdCount! Get out there and do some #citzenscience. It only takes 15 minutes and helps provides valuable information. @Team_eBird @BirdsCanada @HHLandTrust

[Joe Fortin @FortinJoe]

@BirdsCanada @Team_eBird Go #GreatBackyardBirdCount
15 minutes and I had seen 6 blue jays, 4 tree sparrows, and a Varied Thrush sunning in an Aspen Tree! (and a chickadee too!)

[Birds Canada @BirdsCanada]

The Great Backyard Bird Count starts Friday! Participating is free & can take as little as 15 minutes - it's a great opportunity to try out birding & Citizen Science, if you (or some of your friends & family) haven't done it before! https://t.co/z6yYLMwdnJ

[Birds Canada @BirdsCanada]

Protecting nature is key to fixing our climate. With Canada’s abundance of natural assets, we have the opportunity and responsibility to develop nature-based solutions. Urge our government to turn promises into policies. #NatureNow! Learn more at: https://t.co/cEh2ZRQVo1

Thank you Ryan Sanderson for your shot of a Red-headed Woodpecker from Indiana — it's on the #eBirdfrontpage!
Did you know? These birds store food in crevices and under tree bark to eat later!
