Glen got to Joe Brown a few minutes before our 8am scheduled arrival and turned on Merlin Sound ID. In a few minutes it had identified 15 birds while just standing there at the entrance to the trail. But most of them were never seen as we walked through the park perhaps because all the

DNCB Outing No. 2023-11B to DeBoville Slough, March 15, 2023
It was a small group today – Warren and Lynne, Colin and Stephanie, Richard, Lidia and Glen – which I am sure accounts for the small number of birds we saw. You can see the eBird list in the link below with only 20 species. Some of us had trouble finding the trailhead with an

DNCB Outing No. 2022-45A to Ladner Harbour Park, November 8, 2022
Six DNCBers met at Ladner Harbour Park on a cold sunny morning – Glen, Dirk, John, Bryan DeB, Lorna and Terry. A light dusting of snow overnight covered the branches with snow. This made for a very scenic walk. Bird feeders at the caretaker’s house had attracted Anna’s Hummingbirds, Black-capped Chickadees and Downy Woodpeckers. The
