In Manitoba there is barely any snow if any at all. We had a good dump of it about a week ago, but it has melted and made for some very messy and destructive backroads. I have been north of winnipeg and into the interlake and there is none.

Sask and Alberta have had the most snowfall. I don't know if it is melting or staying. I know my grandpa called with about 16 inches of snow on the ground(he's from moosomin).

We are getting a warmer week here this week with temps above 10*C so anything that is remaining should melt.

As for birds, there are constantly moving. I am very impressed with the number of birds held up in this area, which translates into a slow migration for you fellers. It will happen. First night it goes to like 20*F and snows.....there will be a WAVE of birds.

We are just seeing the northern ducks now, a lot of snow geese and some GIANT canada's. My dog retrieved his first goose which weighed in at about 14lbs!
