I took a stroll to Duncan Reef, HRM, this morning and was surprised to see a flight of eight Whimbrels pass over the reef and up into the coastal barrens.  In my experience it's early for this bird here.

Yesterday Laura and I found three Eastern Kingbirds by the dyke road just west of the Grand Pre museum, Kings.  Later on the North Mountain near the Ross Creek Centre we spotted an American Kestrel on the wires hawking insects.
