--Boundary_(ID_e5yNtobpuyP3JDWGBo815w) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT JAN. 11, 2010 - 5 cardinals appeared at my home feeders this morning, along with 8 white-throated sparrows etc., and a male flicker attempted to feed on a small piece of commercial suet with an immature male hairy woodpecker. They were both successful for at least a short time. Regarding the flicker, we also have a regular female flicker, but I didn't see her this morning. Fred Phillips tells me he very recently saw an ALL WHITE EAGLE ??? in New Minas. I told him I doubt this very much, and that perhaps he saw an all-white gull? but he flatly denied that -- anyway, he is not a regular observer nor reporter on birds. JAN. 12, 2010 - Today at our feeders, there was a female flicker, a single junco, 4 goldfinches, the usual single song sparrow, etc. Darrell Slauenwhite was very surprised about 10 days ago when a CHIPMUNK appeared in his yard at Lockartville (e. of Avonport), and he saw it daily or nearly so until yesterday. He also told me that fairly recently there were 2 black variants of the red squirrel in his neighborhood for about 2 years, but they have disappeared. Cheers from Jim in Wolfville Jim (James W.)
