Hi all
Some belated sightings:

Pictou Causeway spillway -1 Common Tern
Waterside PP
 60+ White-winged Crossbill
400+ Canada Geese
9 White-rumped Sandpiper

There were a good number of Red-necked Grebes and a few Horned Grebes, RT Loons and Horned Larks. White-winged and Surf Scoter were off shore and the Peregrine at one point flew in from that area with something black in the talons. Red-breqasted Mergansers and Scaup were seen in thae areas as well as the usual flock of Black Ducks and Canada Geese (170).
cheers
Ken
