Comparing a $200 West Marine special with the latest MIL spec WAAS - GPS used by commercial airlines or the military is utterly futile. Cheers Arild

A couple of visits to the Eardley-Masham / Steele Rd. area in the Gatineau hills were productive for BALD EAGLES - at least 8 were spotted on the 10th. Reports of COOPER'S HAWKS came from several locations.

A visit to the Embrun sewage lagoons on the 28th produced some good sightings including a very early female BUFFLEHEAD, seven juvenile COMMON MOORHENS, and large numbers of SWALLOWS, including approx. 1,000 TREE and smaller numbers of NORTHERN ROUGH-WINGED, BANK, CLIFF and BARN.
