Over the past few days we found more good birds around southern Nova Scotia.
20KP67 (Map: http://tinyurl.com/24gt7y9)
We did some atlassing in Carleton on June 2nd and found some decent birds
including a group of 6 Chimney Swifts foraging, a Cliff Swallow colony, a
Baltimore Oriole singing, 3 Canada Warblers, and 2 Olive-sided Flycatchers.
20KP86 (Map: http://tinyurl.com/20KP86)
On June 2nd in my co-worker heard a indigo bunting singing at our campsite
and then we spotted both the male and female where the power lines meet the
road (see Google maps.) The next day he had another singing male in another
area of the same Atlas square. In the same location we got our first
Tennessee Warbler of the season.

During the evening of June 4th and again the next morning we heard a
possible American Three-toed Woodpecker drumming. Distinguishing between the
two species on drumming alone is not reliable, however because it trailed
off at the end much slower than Black-backed woodpeckers typically do it is
more likely to be at three-toed. Both days it was heard drumming only once
and we could not locate it.
20KP03 (Map: http://tinyurl.com/20LP03)
Today (June 6th) my co-worker found a Great Crested Flycatcher singing at
the beginning of Quinn's Road which is opposite of the turnoff to the 309
(see Google maps.) I had a bird I initially thought was a Pine Warbler, but
after listening to recordings I believe it was something else. I had a poor
view of the bird because it was quite foggy so I could only tell that it was
yellow below and greenish on top. What made me think it was something
unusual was its call. It didn't sing, chipped constantly, sounding something
similar to a chipping sparrow. It was something familiar to me, but not
normal. Listening to recordings, the closest match I could make was
Orange-crowned Warbler, which although sounds very similar, I don't think I
can make a definite ID. Could anyone suggest a warbler which has a similar
chip?
Tonight I am staying at a hotel due to the weather, which explains the
detailed email. When I'm in the field don't expect as good directions as
these!
Cheers,
Lucas
