Hi Everyone;
I drove to Don MacNeill's this afternoon to try to see
the Mockingbird. Liz Doull and I spent almost half an
hour watching around the houses on Archibald Ave. with
no luck. We did get a nice surprise when a
Yellow-breasted Chat flew right in front of us and
started feeding under the hedge in front of the second
white house from the corner of Archibald & Romans!
As I was driving away, I thought I'd check the houses
behind Archibald (Cook & Heinish) and there it was!
sitting in a huge bush on the corner of Cook and
Romans in front of a small white house (6966?). It
was right out in the open, looking very satisfied. It
was surrounded by little black berries - in fact lots
of bushes around it had loads of berries of one kind
or another.
Don and Carol told us he had seen it this morning -
and that it was sure to be somewhere close by. Thanks
for the heads up, Don!
Directions: Romans Ave. runs along one side of the
Halifax Shopping Centre, between Bayers Road and
Mumford Road. If you turn into Aikens Ave. off
Romans, and follow it around, it will end on
Archibald. The Mockingbird and the Chat can be seen
in any of the bushes, hedges and ornamental trees
around these four houses (on the lefthand side of the
road if you're facing Romans. When you come out on
Romans again, turn left towards Bayers Road for about
100 meters until you come to Cook. The bush that the
Mockingbird was in is on the lefthand, near corner of
Cook and Romans.
Happy New Year!
