Hi everyone, While out shoveling the ice and snow out of the driveway (again ), a killdeer called as it flew over at 9:30 this morning. I looked up in time to see it flying west. While this is not close to record-breaking early, it is hopefully a sign of things to come during this cold, snowy winter. I can guarantee that there have been no overwintering killdeer around here this year. Erie Beach is in Chatham-Kent County, 4 km west of Erieau on frozen Lake Erie.
