See my notes below which embellish Judy's notes on my yard birds and mammal= s -- note especially the approx. 8 PINE SISKINS which showed up briefly for Sherman and myself. Cheers from Jim in Wolfville, 91 Wickwire Ave., 542-9204 Jan. 12, 2007 - Judy Tufts visited our Wolfville yard for the second time i= n two days and did see the CLAY-COLOURED SPARROW, the imm. WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW, 2 CARDINALS (m,f), 2 FLICKERS (m,f), etc. Later I and Sherman Williams saw about 8 PINE SISKINS that were only presen= t briefly. Other animals today included a female HAIRY WOODPECKER, a single adult CHIPPING SPARROW, 1 AM. TREE SPARROW, 1 COMMON REDPOLL, 10+ JUNCOS, 5+ WHITE-THROATED SPARROWS, 4+ BLUE JAYS, 4+ CHICKADEES, 2+ PHEASANTS, 1 STARLING, 1 RED SQUIRREL. Also Judy heard a couple of PINE GROSBEAKS from our yard today. Add at least one muscular and agile RACCOON who for the last few nights has attacked and detached a bird-house feeder on top of a stump, the only feede= r that I leave out overnight when the temperature is reasonably warm. Jan. 13, 2007 - Two COMMON REDPOLLS were waiting for me when I put my feeders out this morning. ---------- From: Judy Tufts <tandove@ns.sympatico.ca> Date: Sat, 12 Jan 2008 14:00:32 -0400 To: NatureNS <naturens@chebucto.ns.ca> Cc: Jim Wolford <jimwolford@eastlink.ca> Subject: Clay-coloured Sparrow - Wolfville - Sat Wolfville, Sat Jan 12 / 08: The Clay-coloured Sparrow continues to visit Jim Wolford's feeding station in Wolfville.=20 After a disappointing previous attempt to see it, I was delighted to find the Clay-coloured Sparrow included in a mixed flock of sparrows - 5 White-throats, the imm. White-crowned, one Am Tree Sparrow and a sprinkling of Juncos - that arrived shortly after 11.15 a.m. this morning. Jim has no= t seen the Chipping Sparrows for several days and was even wondering if the Clay-coloured had moved on. The arrival of a pair of N. Cardinals was an additional treat, along with a pair of N. Flickers, several Blue Jays, Bl-cap Chickadees and a Red-br. Nuthatch. While I was there today I heard Pine Grosbeaks calling, and found four sitting in trees in a neighbour's yard. I had noted four across the road from Jim's yesterday - possibly the same ones?=20 Cheers,=20 Judy Tufts=20 =20 >>>>>>>>>>>=20 =A0=A0 Judy=A0 Tufts=20 =A0=A0=A0=A0 Wolfville=20 <<<<<<<<<<<=20 --Boundary_(ID_fjzS9Bsv7gEBpftnu1hX4A) Content-type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Clay-coloured Sparrow, Siskins, Pine Grosbeaks, etc. - Wolfville - S= at</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <B>Thanks very much to Sherman Williams plus two of the Eastlink tech-suppo= rt people, I have at least temporarily found my computer problem and also go= t my iBook Macintosh working (that I have had since June!)(different operati= ng system), SO I'M BACK! <BR> <BR> See my notes below which embellish Judy's notes on my yard birds and mammal= s -- note especially the approx. 8 PINE SISKINS which showed up briefly for = Sherman and myself.<BR> <BR> Cheers from Jim in Wolfville, 91 Wickwire Ave., 542-9204<BR> <BR> Jan. 12, 2007 </B>- Judy Tufts visited our Wolfville yard for the second ti= me in two days and did see the <B>CLAY-COLOURED SPARROW</B>, the imm. <B>WHI= TE-CROWNED SPARROW</B>, 2 <B>CARDINALS</B> (m,f), 2 <B>FLICKERS</B> (m,f), e= tc.<BR> <BR> Later I and Sherman Williams saw about 8 <B>PINE SISKINS </B>that were only= present briefly.
