Saw the following birds: = Savannah Sparrow (4), Song Sparrow (8-10), Ring-dilled Gull (50), Great = Black-backed Gull (5), Herring Gull (30-40), Iceland Gull (20-30, especially at = the sewage ponds), Black-Headed Gull (1, at the sewage ponds), = Red-tailed Hawk (4-6), Rough-legged Hawk (1) and a Peregrine Falcon (adult). It was definitelly nice to get out and some decent birds. That's the = second Black-headed Gull I have seen in the area this year, first was in = late fall, otherwise I believe they are quite rare in the annapolis valley, = correct me if I am wrong though. Back to studying.
