I was speaking with Steve Vines this evening and he and Amber had a few interesting observations in Pictou Co. over the last
couple of days.  A 1st winter LAUGHING GULL was seen at the west end of the causeway to Big I. Dec. 26. They also saw 
2 DOVEKIES at Chance Hbr. the same day.

Today, Dec. 27, they saw 2 DOVEKIES off Melmerby Beach PP. Also today the inner Chance Hbr. was chalk full of mergansers and gulls.
Steve felt there were 3000 Red-breasted Merganser and 1000 Bonaparte's Gulls with about 2000 gulls in the area. 
cheers
Ken
