A WESTERN TANAGER was seen Wed. Nov. 26 in the yard of Ann Young, Pictou between the Pictou Marina and the Pictou Shipyards. I just heard about this sighting Mon. morning and I failed to re-find it yesterday. I spoke with the observer and she has not seen it since her first sighting. At Big I., Nov. 28, Steve and Amber Vines reported 3 Short-eared Owls hunting near the island end of the causeway. They also noted a dark-phase Rough-legged Hawk, 2 Flickers, and a Dunlin Charlie and Judy Kendell observed one of the Short-eared Owls hunting with a male Northern Harrier near dusk on Nov. 30 on Big I. On Dec.1, I observed ~ 80 Hooded Mergansers at the Haliburton Gut near the Pictou rotary. Only 3 Red-throated Loons remain at Waterside PP. There were about 400 Bonaparte's Gulls at Central Caribou and 2 Black-headed Gulls were observed with them. Two Purple Sandpipers remain at the Chance Harbour wharf area. At the entrance to Pictou Harbour, I observed 19 Bald Eagles, all but one were sub-adults. I saw about 35 Bald Eagles in total between Caribou, Pictou and Chance Harbours. Powell Pt. Park continues to have a large flock of Red-breasted Mergansers ~ 1400 birds with a substantial flock of Bonaparte's Gulls cheers Ken --Boundary_(ID_PAtQM+h5Qd6dWHtsuca18A) 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>Here are a couple of observations from Pictou Co. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A WESTERN TANAGER was seen Wed.
