Index of Subjects Ken McKenna Box 218 Stellarton NS B0K 1S0 902 752-7644 Hi Jim and all Yesterday while on the Economy CBC I noted a Ruffed Grouse in full display with a female? nearby, All the ruffs on his neck were elevated in full display and the tail was fanned out. I was fortunate to have close views of a male Black-backed Woodpecker on the trail by the gate in Economy PP. I think someone else also had another Black-backed during the count. cheers Ken ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Wolford" <jimwolford@eastlink.ca> To: "NatureNS" <naturens@chebucto.ns.ca> Sent: Friday, December 28, 2007 1:31 AM Subject: [NatureNS] evening grosbeak, 3 f. cardinals, weird pheasant behaviour?, etc. -- Wolfville N. > CARDINALS in sight at once; and a gorgeously coloured (very red-faced) > cock > PHEASANT aggressively ran across the yard directly at a long female/imm. > pheasant, ran a tight circle around her/it, and then appeared to forage > near > her/it.
