The trees under the cowling are Dave & Pats point.Ice is deteriorating fast,Ice is starting to "candle" and shore lines are pulling away.I thought I might make 1 more quad trip to town but Queer Island route is definitely out,will have to go 12 mile route.
Mallards arrived on 13th
Turkey vulcher on 15th.
Blue Jays and Chick-a dee's have moved on
On the 12 th my 1st estimated boat trip to Bare Point was May 07th, after today Peter put me down for May02nd.

Spring Thaw
Not a lot of changes here in past week. The Goldeneye ducks returned on April 12th.
Was flying on 12th and there are still trucks travelling over 12 mile and a van was fishing @ Rocky Narrows.Saw a boat pushing ice in Keewatin Channel.
While typing this letter I'm watching 4 Eagles chasing an Otter around the open water out front.
The ice road is gone in front of Guy Belluz and have to pick your way around the tip of Queer-other than that travel is good by Quad as all snow melted off the ice on
