Mar. 24, 2008 - This morning a SONG SPARROW appeared at our Wolfville
feeders.  This is our first winter (out of five) during which we had no song
sparrow at all.

For the last three days, we have had a male FLICKER DRUMMING on the metal
parts associated with the top of our house chimney.  This also happened last
year.

And our CLAY-COLOURED and immature WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW continue to be
present.

At Lower Canard, Nancy Burbidge reports 2  RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS (today or
very recently).

Cheers :-) from Jim in Wolfville, 542-9204
