Hamilton has taken a huge step backwards with the delayed implementation of the Green Building Standards. The GBS includes bird-friendly measures. See yesterday's Spectator for the story.

1) Ford to FLAP?!!! The good people of Ontario are receiving $200 from Doug Ford. Grocery bills alone are a challenge for so many but can you spare some of that $200 to help out a favourite charity. We feel that FLAP Canada is worthy of your consideration.

Our team thanks Glenn Meldrum for his perseverance and dedication to providing a shelter for Barn Swallows in Greensville. Aerial insectivores like swallows and swifts are under threat and need our help.
