Before I even got out of my car I could hear a House Finch >singing loudly near the Ralston Building on Hollis Street, and >further along I heard a Yellow Warbler singing, apparently from the >garden at Government House (the Lieutenant-Governor's residence). > > Later, on my way home, I was stopped in traffic on South Park >Street, the Lord Nelson Hotel on my right and the Public Gardens on >the left. I could hear a Blackpoll Warbler singing from one of the >tall Lindens beside the Gardens. No chance to stop and look for it! > > House Finches are now common in downtown Halifax; they seem to find >a home among the ornamental plantings around some of the larger >buildings and the ferry terminal. The Yellow Warbler might stay, but >the Blackpoll was certainly just passing through. > > Patricia L. Chalmers > Halifax > >P.S. I heard my first Blackpoll Warbler of the year while walking to >work on Tuesday morning (Cambridge and Geldert Streets). I haven't >seen any reports of them on NatureNS? > >
