Jan. 30, 2008 - Of course, just after reporting its absence for a few days,
the CLAY-COLOURED SPARROW was back this morning! (Sorry it wasn't around
for Wendy & Bob McDonald on Sunday).
Cheers again from Jim in Wolfville

Subject: no clay-coloured sparrow at my feeders, etc.
Jan. 29, 2008 - At our home feeders in Wolfville, I have NOT seen the
CLAY-COLOURED SPARROW for perhaps 4-6 days, but we do still have at least
one CHIPPING SPARROW and the imm. WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW. Also missing for
several days is the RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH, and I only saw the 2
WHITE-BREASTED NUTHATCHES on the one day. No FLICKERS nor the SONG SPARROW
for a few days either. We still have at least 2 CARDINALS, a male and a
female, regularly. Also again two separate RED SQUIRRELS today. Still lots
of juncos, several white-throated sparrows, up to 6 blue jays, up to 13
pheasants, a few mourning doves, an occasional starling, at least one downy
woodpecker and one hairy woodpecker, a few goldfinches, and only
occasionally up to a few common redpolls.
Also back on January 21st, at Avonport Pat (Hawes) had a good look at a
probable PEREGRINE FALCON that flew along next to her car at close range.
And Sheila Burke, who lives at Hortonville, had been seeing a N. HARRIER
there daily, up to Saturday, Jan. 26th, when I talked with her on the 27th.
