JUNE 9, 2010 - Robie Tufts Nature Centre in Wolfville at dusk: 42+  
chimney swifts counted as they dropped into the chimney --  
observations from 8:55 to 9:40 p.m. (Sunset 8:57 (Herald)) -- the  
swifts made us wait and wait, until 9:20 when 24 went into the  
chimney quickly, then stragglers entered gradually with long gaps to  
9:37 or later -- sky clear, cool, wind light, 14-13 C. -- observers  
Jim Wolford, Tony Napoli, & a man from Scotland.

JUNE 10, 2010 - We saw a red admiral butterfly at home on blackberry  
flowers.

I walked to the raven nest just north of the Acadia Univ. Arena, and  
there were only 1+1 ravens there, probably an adult plus a single  
juvenile (of the 5 youngsters seen there a couple of days ago).

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
