Hi all,

A few highlights from the CBC at Hartlen Pt. Nothing earth  
shattering, and several misses of species scouted earlier, but pretty  
cool (in both senses) nonetheless. In no particular order:

   Northern Goshawk way in the back of the golf course
   a male Harlequin Duck, flushed from mouth of Back Cove and  
disappeared toward the point
   Yellow-breasted Chat in thickets along Monster Lane
   Orange-crowned Warbler barely surviving with chickadees, first  
pull-off to left off Romkey (from Shore Rd)
   several Glaucous Gulls (don't know final count); at least two 2nd  
winter opposite Devils Island, one adult flying by the point
   two Snowy Owls on Devils Island, one near each end
   unidentified raptor perched on Devils Island
   Northern Harrier over the golf course
   Sharp-shinned Hawk behind Tallahassee School and along beach  
opposite Devils Island

Cheers,
Andy Horn
