The best bird was a F/ imm. RED-BELLIED WOODPECKER along the tracks E. of Wolfville - very likely the same one seen a few days ago by Bernard Forsythe and Rick Whitman. There were 2 Red-thr. Loons and 2 W-W Scoter on the water, but no shorebirds. There were small flocks of Horned Larks with a few Snow Buntings around the dykes, with at least 1 Lapland Longspur. There were 4 or 5 Bald Eagles perched on treetops, but I only saw 1 Red-tail. There were thousnds of Crows, hundreds of Starlings, and I estmated about 600 Black Ducks and 100+ Canada Geese on the tide across from Wolfville Sewage plant. Song and Savannah Sparrows also seemed plentiful. Would have been a great day for a Xmas Count! Richard -- ################# Richard Stern, 317 Middle Dyke Rd.
