This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_Jj/c/uokqOTJwcpRGEqy5Q) Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT ----- Original Message ----- From: Hans Toom To: Ns-Rba@Yahoogroups.Com Sent: Monday, May 14, 2007 7:31 PM Subject: Red-bellied Woodpecker, Gray Catbird, Swainson's Thrush and Night Hawk A Red-bellied Woodpecker was seen during the migration count, May 12, and also today by Fred Greig. There are three, one pair and a juvenile, in the area of Kirk Rd., McManus Rd., Albion Rd., and possibly as far south as Williams Lake. This area is directly east of Frog Lake, Sir Sanford Fleming Park, Halifax, but the birds have not been reported in the park, yet. I am told that this is likely the pair that was reported to have bred here last year and have now successfully overwintered. When I was doing my migration count circuit, May 12, in Guysborough County I spotted three Night Hawks and two Gray Catbirds east of Trafalgar and heard two Swainson's Thrushes. The boreal forest on the road between Trafalgar and Cameron Settlement is a birder's paradise, just discovered by me but probably known by others. I will revisit this area later this spring, especially early in the morning.
