Nov. 19, 2007 - In late afternoon Bernard Forsythe saw a lovely
YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER along Paul Elderkinıs driveway at Greenwich, just
east of the Wolfville boundary (long driveway north of Main St./Highway 1.
Nov. 20, 2007 - A search for the YELLOW-THROATED WARBLER was fruitless -- I
needed Bernard Forsythe to help me find it -- but there are lots of
feeder-birds to see at and around Paul Elderkinıs home in westernmost
Wolfville at the Greenwich border: lots of blue jays, bl.-c. chickadees, 2+
white-breasted nuthatches, lots of goldfinches, both hairy and downy
woodpeckers, mourning doves, a song sparrow, several juncos at the pond.
And in the pond were about 50 mallards and a GREAT BLUE HERON.
Nov. 21, 2007 - In the New Minas sewage ponds: 1 juvenile GREAT BLUE HERON,
1 female/imm. LESSER? SCAUP (pretty sure), 15 mallards, 5 black ducks, 1
GREEN-WINGED TEAL, 5+ ICELAND GULLS (all adults), plus assorted other gulls
(ring-bills, herrings, gtr. black-backs), and a red-tailed hawk.
