--Boundary_(ID_KpRZS7Vchm734uTUxTAe8g) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT To Nick and Tuma's list, I can add 13+ ring-billed gulls at the Wolfville sewage ponds (between Grand Pre and Wolfville along the main dyke), and about 30+ Canada geese seen distantly in flight over the Starr's Point/Port Williams area (seen from Grand Pre). I also saw a single adult female n. harrier, and I wonder whether Nick & Tuma thought there were 3 different individual harriers? Cheers from Jim in Wolfville.
