DEC. 4, 2009 - At high tide (very high) in Wolfville Harbour, no late  
shorebirds to be seen along the railroad tracks.

Port Williams sewage ponds: aout 110 mallards, 2 black ducks, 1 red- 
tailed hawk.

Canard Pond: 6 n. pintails (3m, 3f/imm.), 20 black ducks, 1 mallard,  
1 raven, 1 adult bald eagle.

Saxon St. Pond: 50 mallards, 1 black duck, 30 green-winged teals, 1  
ad. bald eagle.

Lakeville, Silver Lake: 5 hooded mergansers (3m,2f/imm.), 1 ad. bald  
eagle.

At 4 p.m. today at my Wolfville feeders, there were 7 different n.  
cardinals at once -- 3 males, 4 females.  Also I heard a song of a  
white-throated sparrow.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn  
from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent  
disinclination to do so.
