Hi All:

I haven't been very active on the list this winter but still busy watching
what ever comes past my window.  We have had White throated Sparrows since
the second of March.  A brown Creeper has visited on March 14th,20th, 23rd,
& 25th,that I was able to document.  The Chickadees are showing interest in
the nest boxes again this year, so hope they will stay.  Two Downey WP and a
Red-Breasted Nuthatch are regular visitors, as well as a Hairy WP once in a
while.  A very nice Fox Sparrow was here for a few days but haven't seen it
again since March 29th.  Yesterday while driving through East Pubnico, my
sister-in-law and I saw a mature Bald Eagle, being harassed by a crow as it
was flying over Pubnico Harbour.

 

I had the chance to go to Texas for a short visit and saw the following:

Red-Bellied Wood Pecker

Cattle Egrets

Turkey vultures

Double-crested cormorants

Red Tailed Hawks ( had a nest in trees where I was visiting)

Brown and White Pelicans

Eurasian Collared Dove

Rock Pigeons

Bonipart gulls and I think some laughing gulls, ( there were so many that
looked alike and I didn't have field glasses.)

 

Wish I had been able to do more birding while there.

 

Happy Birding Everyone
