Kwe Msit Wen:
This morning, Nick and I drove out to Sandy Cove-we stopped at Spryfield to
check out the spot where Fulton saw the Bell's vireo. Note-numbers are estimates
only. We saw 10 Song Sparrows, 4-5 Lincoln sparrows(not quite sure and no
pictures of course), 20 Bohemian Waxwings (one lovely picture), a bunch of
Starlings, and a couple Crows. Lots of birds here and also lots of dog poop.
We then went out to Duncan Cove/Chebucto Head. Our first stop was Sir Sandford
Fleming Park and walked around the Frog Pond. We saw BC Chickadees, one Brown
Creeper, couple of Mallards, couple of American Black Ducks and Starlings.
Further along the road to Duncan Cove, we saw couple of crows, a bunch of Rock
Doves, and one strange "duck" that turned out to be a stick. At Chebucto Head,
couple of Black-capped Chickadees.
At Sandy Cove, we saw a large amount of Starlings (over 200). No pictures as
they were all along the wire but when the light strikes them, the little
radiance spots glimmer and shine. I must try for a picture so Ian can put it on
the cover of Birds NS to show how beautiful Starlings are-yeah I know that some
folks consider them to be flying rats but stunning all the same.
No Horned Larks yet Blake/Ian.
By the way, a salix spp. (a pussy willow) at Chebucto Head was out in bloom.
