Yesterday I visited sandhills and found -
=20
Four piping plover
3 terns - two different types
4 willets

Both the terns and the piping plover seem to have nests in the same =
area. Two people from Halifax got dive bombed by the terns. One had =
material left on her hat. I have a feeling that with terns guarding the =
area there is a better chance of the piping plover surviving.

The willets also seemed to have young in the area. I saw a willet Sundy =
near Temple Church having a confrontation with a crow. The willet was =
acting like others I have seen leading their young across a highway to =
the shore.

Today there was a male hummer in my yard.

Roland.
