It appears that the two Green Herons at Cattermole Slough have

Bird Census three young Green Herons were seen standing on the shore
of the Nexen Lands side of Cattermole Slough across from the bridge
on the road to the Squamish Terminals.

Canada Day Weekend Greetings to all birders!

1) Our Squamish Estuary Monthly Bird Count will be held on Sunday, July 10, 2011, at 7:00 a.m. We will meet at the Howe Sound Inn and Brew Pub where we will form four groups to go out and cover the whole estuary. Anyone is welcome to join us for this fun and educational activity, which lasts a little over four hours. We will meet back at the Brew Pub at about noon to bring in our tallies, and to share lunch together. (Lunch is optional.) New birders are always welcome.
