On this lovely spring morn I stopped at the Hwy 7 bridge just west of Carleton Place. There I was treated to 2 Trumpeters to the east of the bridge and an assortment of ducks on both sides of the bridge. There were lots of male female pairs of C. Golden eyes and pairs of Hooded lovers and 1 Bufflehead.
As my grandfather used to recite every spring; " the spring is sprung, the grass is riz, I wonder where the Bluebirds is. The bird is on the wing but that is absurd the wing is on the bird."
