Bird species number 20 was a Merlin (20) flying over when I returned from the mailbox. Two summers ago I found a Merlin nest near the Slocan River which fledged a couple of young. The finches were singing and lots of Canada Geese around. They looked like they were sitting on nests on Gold Island.
Just as the day was ending, the sun had just set, I went outside to empty the compost and heard my first Red-winged Blackbird (21) of the year.
