Nov. 12, 2006 - Heather MacDonald at Avonport Beach reports a small bird with red on the top of its head, probably a COMMON REDPOLL? No sign of the GOLDENEYES at Port Williams sewage ponds (2 checks turned up only 2 pairs of MALLARDS). The large field of corn stubble just south of Noggins Farm at Greenwich contained about 35+ CANADA GEESE in the afternoon. In walking and driving on the Port Williams and Grand Pre dykes and dykelands, Pat and I noticed oodles of ROSE-HIPS OF WILD ROSE. What eats these hips? Their huge numbers every year donıt seem to get depleted much during the winter. Stephen Coldwell picked up a road-killed BARRED OWL (probably) along Highway 101 just east of the Hortonville/Grand Pre exit. There were no bands on the legs, and he will get the bird to the N.S. Dept. of Nat. Resources in Kentville. Cheers from Jim in Wolfville, 542-9204 --------------------- Jim (James W.)
