Dec. 26, 2007 - Both the CLAY-COLOURED and imm. WHITE-CROWNED SPARROWS are
daily visitors to our Wolfville feeders, plus a female CARDINAL, etc.

I also pished a bit around 17 Hillside Ave. in Wolfville in attempt to find
David Silverberg's probable CAROLINA WREN, to no avail.  However, just a bit
south of David's studio are some nice dense shrubs and small trees that look
like a good spot for a wren, and there is an active feeder on that corner.

Port Williams sewage ponds: 5 mallards, no goldeneyes, 2 Am. tree sparrows,
1 song sparrow, and a total of 4 RED-TAILED HAWKS both at the sewage ponds
and on the dykelands south of Port Williams.  This morning George Forsyth
also saw a very, very black-phase ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK near the sewage ponds,
and he said that his party saw 2 dark rough-legs on the Wolfville Christmas
Count on Dec. 15/07.
