Hi all,

A friend living just off St Margaret's Bay Road just uphill from the  
Armdale Rotary in Halifax briefly saw a small crested bird in her  
yard last week that she tentatively decided was a Tufted Titmouse.

Since there's been only one Nova Scotian record ever, and the details  
of this sighting are, well, not too detailed, it probably was  
something else. However, the bird was travelling with chickadees and  
the observer, while not conversant with North American birds, is  
aware of the other possibilities. So anyone with feeders in the area  
or that's wandering through might keep half an eye (and ear) out.

Cheers,
Andy Horn
Halifax
