  Eight Casual Birders met at Blackie Spit carpark: regulars, Brian and Louise, Johnnie Mac, Colin and Stephanie, Marion, me, and newbie Christine. The weather didn’t look too promising – grey with a threat of rain – but we set off along the spit looking for pipits and other interesting fall migrants. We blanked on the…

• DNCB Outing No. 2023-19A to Joe Brown Park, May 9, 2023

  Ten birders met at Joe Brown Park in Surrey on a lovely spring morning – Jacquie, Lidia, Dottie, Jonathan, Lindly, Lorraine, Terry, John, Lorna, Jim. All the new foliage made it difficult to see the birds. We heard some species that we did not see – including Pacific-slope Flycatcher and Black-throated Gray Warbler. nThe highlight…

• DNCB Outing No. 2023-18A to Queen Elizabeth Park, May 2, 2023

  Eight birders met at Queen Elizabeth Park on a cool morning that soon warmed up. We parked below the tennis courts on 37th Avenue to avoid the 4 dollar an hour parking fee. It was relatively quiet birdwise. We did see Bushits, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Wilson’s Warblers, Orange-crowned Warblers, Black-capped Chickadees, Song Sparrows, Anna’s Hummingbirds, Dark-eyed…

• DNCB Outing No. 2023-17A to Tsawwassen Ferry Causeway & Reifel, April 25, 2023

  This outing’s first stop was at the taxi pullout of the Tsawwassen Ferry Jetty.  Five members including Jonathan, Lorraine, Mike, Lorna and guest outing leader Grant.  Weather was a pleasant 10 C with light winds which was a welcome break from the four- layer wind howlers of recent past. We were instantly greeted by an…

• DNCB Outing No. 2023-15A to North 40 Park Reserve, April 11, 2023

  Three painfully optimistic birders, Bob, Dottie and Lee, left White Rock in the pouring rain, arriving at the North 40 Park Reserve just in time for the rain to end.  It was cloudy, chill and damp, and absent any other birders we could find. Croaks sounded from the water-filled ditches, likely bullfrogs, but a rabbit…
