All:

Bruce Mactavish - a long ago Halifax resident and superbirder - found a young
COMMON SHELDUCK in Quidi Vidi Lake, St. John's, this a.m. It then disappeared
but is being aeagerly sought. It seems likely to be a wild bird, possibly from
the increasing numbers occurring in Iceland, and I believe would be a first for
N. America.

Anyway, thought others might consider this remote possibility when birding along
the Atlantic Coast in the next days and weeks - who knows . . .

Cheers, Ian

Ian McLaren
