We don't get to see Evening Grosbeaks all that otten here, so it's always a thrill when we call in at Barb Castell's acreage during the annual, provincial May Species Count. A good variety of bird species come to her feeders, and it's all we can do to drag ourselves away to continue on our search, SW of the city.
