Hi all 
Charlie Kendell and I spent some time in the outdoors of Pictou Co. today ( Nov. 19, 2011.). We had some fun photographing a band on a Herring Gull near Pier C in Pictou. We 
were able to finally read all the numbers by photographing the gull after getting it to move around by throwing out some trail mix!
It was banded in July 2006 in Witless Bay, NL and at the time was young and could not fly. 
Here are our highlights:

Redpolls- Waterside PP a few heard fyling overhead
Snow Buntings- 7 Waterside PP, 2 Pictou Lodge
Bonapartes Gull: 350 Waterside PP, 60 Haliburton Gut and a few here and there elsewhere
Red-throated Loon: 10 Waterside PP, 10 Caribou Lighthouse area
Great Blue Heron: 1 Waterside PP
Rough-legged Hawk: 1 Central Caribou dark phase
Iceland Gull: 6 Pictou lodge, 2 Logan's Rd., 6 New Glasgow sewer
Hooded Merganser: 100 Haliburton Gut and a few here and there elsewhere
Purple Sandpiper:1 Sinclairs I. 
Great Cormorant:1 Pier C Pictou
Sanderling: 2 Sinclairs I.
Red-breasted Merganser-400 Pictou Lodge and scores elsewhere
Barrow's Goldeneye: 1 male East River of Pictou near george St. bridge

cheers
ken
