As we shelter in place, now’s the time to read, listen to music, talk with friends or learn something new. It goes without saying that the April meeting of the Elphinstone Community Association has been cancelled (Wed. April 8 at Frank West Hall).

Our summer visitor migrant birds begin to reappear on the Sunshine Coast in mid-March. Keynote species among these early arrivals are the swallows (violet-green and tree), yellow-rumped warbler and rufous hummingbird.
