At 5:15 p.m. on a lovely warm & Sunny day, I heard and then saw 3  
chimney swifts flying high above the area of University Hall's  
southwest chimney, where I think swift nesting is probably going on.

And near the Irving Centre on campus, I saw a very large winged ant  
exploring the ground and edge of of University Avenue.

And on a lawn also near the Irving Centre and Business Dept. bldg. on  
campus, there was a fresh small irregular specimen of Calvatia sp., a  
small "giant puffball" (diameter about 5 cm.).

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
