I took a hike out along the coastal barrens of Crystal Crescent Beach Provincial Park this morning. There were lots of Yellow-rumped Warblers, a few Palm Warblers and one Warbling Vireo.  While returning I spotted my first ever Turkey Vulture in the park.  I also saw a Northern Harrier.

Last Tuesday I spotted a Baltimore Oriole at Duncan's Cove amongst hordes of Blue-headed Vireos and Yellow-rumped Warblers.  It's nice to less orioles this year.  I hope it stays that way. The bird suffers so much trying to tough out our winters.

On Thursday an immature Yellow-bellied Sapsucker passed trhough our place in Portuguese Cove, the first in several years.

Hans
