Highlights were mostly ducks and gulls. At the sewer there were still 100+ RING-BILLED GULLS, but ICELAND GULLS have increased to 15. This will soon reverse as winter approaches. At Chance Harbour there were 2 PURPLE SANDPIPERS with 2 SANDERLINGS and a DUNLIN. There were 9 RED-THROATED LOONS in the Strait just off the wharf and 2 Gannets flying by. At Black Pt. were 10 HOODED MERGANSERS. A SHARP-SHINNED HAWK circled with several Eagles. Powell Pt. PP had about 1200 RED-BREASTED MERGANSERS, and 200 BONAPARTE'S GULLS. An adult BLACK-HEADED GULL was easy to pick out there as it had a noticeably pink belly. Hundreds of gulls in the distance were too hard to see from the park entrance. At the boardwalk to the entrance of Melmerby PP. a MYRTLE WARBLER, was seen with Tree and Song Sparrows and Snow Bunting. Off-shore were 2 more RED-THROATED LOONS, 3 HORNED GREBES, A handful of SURFand WHITE-WINGED SCOTERS. A DUNLIN nad 8 SANDERLINGS flew over the beach. Inner bay had 200+ Canada Geese, 150 Black Ducks. Most of the Harbours had 20-30 Common Goldeneye. cheers Ken --Boundary_(ID_1paZ0m5QNty020OvY7UnoA) Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.6000.16735" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ken McKenna<BR>Box 218 Stellarton NS<BR>B0K 1S0<BR>902 752-7644<BR>Hi all</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I did a quick afternoon loop through New Glasgow and checking the sewer, Chance, Little and Merigomish Harbours ( Melmerby PP section) this afternoon.
