Hi all:
=20
Additions for the Winter list I believe. Today David Walmark and I managed=
to get in a few hours of birding. Good birds located were at Conrad's Isl=
and=2C Lower Rose Bay=2C where we observed and watched an American kestrel =
on the wires along the causeway going out to the island. Along the beach e=
dge of Sand Dollar Beach as the locals call it we had a Lapland longspur. =
The longspur provided great viewing and was not the least bit concerned abo=
ut our presence. There were lots of flys of some sort coming up off the se=
aweed that the longspur was partaking of. There was also a belted kingfish=
er present that we watched fly across towards Kingsburg. Oh yes=2C and the=
re was a double-crested cormorant also sitting on the shoreline on the insi=
de of the causeway. =20
=20
Other interesting species observed today but not rare=2C were all three sco=
ter species. Surf scoters can easily be gotten along the LaHave River any =
time over the winter. The white-winged scoters were off of Sand Dollar Bea=
ch at Rose Bay and a lone black scoter was off Kingsburg Beach. For here A=
merican coots are hard to come by. There was one in Kingsburg Pond at King=
sburg. Off Kingsburg Beach there was a Barrow's X Common Goldeneye. Also =
there were two red-necked grebes and two red-throated loons.
