Wonderful weekend in Shelburne County. Aileen Smith and I had great looks at the Fork-tailed Flycatcher on 4th October. Also a good look at a large dark adult Peregrine at the Guzzle. Lots of movement of birds (mentioned by others). On Sunday FTFL still present, feeding, and appeared undisturbed by viewing from vehicles. I missed the Great crested Flycatcher on CSI, but glad others saw it. I remember Peter and Linda Payzant showing me my first one in Waverley. I believe it nested there a couple of years. I took a few pictures at the Hawk beach of Semi and Western Sandpipers side by side, but the pics are not very clear. In the eastern part of the county, there was great warbler movement at Camp Jordan yesterday. A flock of seven or eight vireos flushed, then as I was pulling off the road, a Vulture went over the road. I believe it was a Black Vulture ( I am familiar with them) but recorded only Vulture species as it was some distance away and quite high. There must have been a hundred Yellow-rumps along the track, and a number of other unidentified fall warblers along the camp property. I was rushed for time, so no big list. Will be off naturens for a couple of months, but have enjoyed all the postings. Cheers, Joan
