Hey gang. It’s with a heavy heart that I let you know that I’ve decided to shut down the Junco's Pub live stream.
The Junco's Pub Karaoke event at The Ship tonight will be the final hurrah for the stream, at least in its current form.
While it hasn’t appeared at the pub, the recent frounce scare on the east coast of Newfoundland has taken the fun out of feeding wild birds.
I encourage other folks to listen to the advice of the experts like Bill Montevecchi and Laura Rogers and take the feeders down — at the very least until winter each year. And even in winter, try to only use feeders as an emergency support during cold snaps or bad weather.
<3 and thanks for watching.
See you tonight!
Elling
