[Pollinator] Is Spring here yet? - for Canadians

[Pentek, Laszlo (DISB)]

Ah, but suspect that only during "Bud Break" will a majority of
participants be standing around celebrating by guzzling BUDweiser from a
can/container whilst complaining the event should be moved to a date
that has a lower pollen count on account of their hay-fever acting up...

(this comment is not invented it is based upon such a gripe expressed by
an intern during a Cherry Blossom Festival)

I wonder... is Frogwatch held primarily in Quebec?

Now Worm watch might be particularly apropos for Washington...

And for those of us in Canada, you can participate in various  
NatureWatch programs: FrogWatch, IceWatch, PlantWatch and WormWatch.   
Similar idea as in the states - citizen science and monitoring.  Check  
out http://www.naturewatch.ca/english/ for more info.

Happy Spring!
