Monday, May 23, 2011 Left Suzanne's field trip in the Hants county at 4 pm (some great birds seen). She will send a report to NatureNS soon... Visited Belleisle Marsh where I had not visited for several years.... Quite birdy. Lots of birds flying around despite my late arrival at 6 pm. It was great to see a lot of swallows flying around. I stayed inside my car the whole time, not wanting to pick up ticks. At the end, a really big tick landed on the driver door window, thankfully outside. It then crawled into a ?crevice by the door. Got home and found it, but on the left passenger door window! Rain would have helped washing it away on the highway. Had to kill it. Sorry. Birds worth mentioning were: 1 Shoveller - male 1 Gadwall - female? 1 Pied billed Grebe 1 Blue winged Teal - male 1 Wood duck - female 1SNOW Goose (sorry, Don) 1 Bittern 1 Greater Yellowlegs 4 swallow species (mostly tree, 1 Cliff, a few banks) 2 Common Yellow Throat (FoY) 2 osprey 2 Yellow Warbler 8 Bobolink (FoY) 1 Kingbird (looking so desolate?) Cheers, Liz
