Hi all,

No rarities for the 6 birders that covered the Hartlen Point area on  
Sunday, but highlights included all the expected sea and bay ducks  
(both scaup opposite the westmost Tim Hortons), 2 Dovekie (just off  
the point), 8 Northern Harriers (at least 5 of which were certainly  
not double-counts, thanks to plumage, timing, and location), 2 Rough- 
legged Hawks (one dark, one light, headed toward Devil's Island),  
nearly 200 Snow Buntings (biggest flock at the golf course), over 40  
Pine Grosbeaks (everywhere), 8 Lapland Longspurs (airport & golf  
course), over 300 Bohemian Waxwings (biggest flock, c. 270, near the  
westmost Tim Horton's).

Cheers,
Andy Horn
Halifax (with Charles, Domenic, Peter, Duncan, and Bob)
