I am unaware of any official list of birds for Uniacke Estate Museum 
Park, but I'd like to assemble an unofficial one, and hope that any 
NatureNS readers might be able to contribute your sightings.  My 
personal list for the park is quite small, but it can serve as a 
starting point.   I've included it below.  If you have any additional 
bird species (or wish to submit butterfly and dragonfly sightings), 
please email me.
