4. Gulls festing on sand eels being forced to the surface and the sand eels were about 6 inches long.

Also, in Orleans by Rock Harbor there were daffodils in bloom in several spots on the side of the road and many coming up with buds on them.

Wierd winter for sure.

Yeah, I second that ... it's been a weird winter for sure ... I'm not complaining about the warmth ... as I favor it to freezing cold, but it could also mess up the natural dynamic of the seasons ...

whiting? haven't seen one in years. I saw birds working in Truro on Saturday.

All this warm weather we are having this year, what kind of effect will it have on the spawners. I was thinking maybe alot of them would hang farther north than the Chessie?
