The daffodils, beaten down yesterday, stand tall and proud once again and the bird song is deafening - surely now the wettest, windiest winter ever is behind us and our spirits can soar with the rising sun. A very happy task at this time of year is that of choosing our Young Volunteer of the Year 2015. We have 480 young volunteers, 151 of them are helping us as part of their Duke of Edinburgh Award. With great difficulty, we drew up a shortlist of eight and with even more difficulty a winner emerged - Zara Werner from Kent, her view appears later in the newsletter but from our prospective she stood out. Zara has been walking for us for over four years for three different owners. Her current charges are Candy (8) Westie, and Toffee (6), Yorkie whose mum, Maureen Sharp , is absolutely delighted at Zara's award. Maureen says that Zara's twice weekly walks with Candy and Toffee have enabled her to keep her two beloved dogs which mean the world to her. She says the dogs adore Zara and she has come to look upon Zara as a surrogate granddaughter. Maureen is so proud of Zara for completing her Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award as well as receiving our own accolade.

Forty-nine species were seen compared to 39 last year and 50 the year before. 7336 individuals were seen by a total of ten different groups and 13 feeder observers. One group managed to miss the starling! Unusual finds included a myrtle warbler in the South Rotterdam area and a snipe in the cat-tails along the Mohawk. Oregon juncos appeared at two different feeders. The area included the following locales with all points within a 1$ mile diameter circle, center at Lydius St. and Lone Pine Road in Guilderland as in previous years (1*2° U51 N, 73 05' W) . The count began at 6:50 am and continued until Ij.:l5 pro ♦ It was cloudy, the temperature ran from 5-25^ with the wind SW to SE from 0-10 mph. Occasional patches of snow and some ice on the ponds were the conditions of the terrain that day*. There were 30 observers in ten parties as well as 13 feeder observers. A total of 56 hours were spent afield (20 by foot, 36 by car); a total of 368 miles were traveled (25 afoot, 314-3 by car).
