Lun. Co. =20 Today David Walmark and I saw the two snow geese again that I reported as f= ound by Bob Barnes at Branch LaHave in the pond of the right if traveling f= rom Bridgewater just as you pass the Branch LaHave Sign. Lun. Co. =20 I dropped by the red-headed woodpecker location today in Pleasant River=2C = Queens Co. with David Walmark and the male is now sporting almost full adul= t plumage. He was calling away on territory looking for a mate. This is t= he first time I've heard this species call and I find it quite similar to a= northern flicker. Not having this species around here=2C if I were to hav= e heard it in the field I would have assumed that it was a northern flicker= and therefore I was quite surprised to find out that it was not. =20 Not rare=2C but I saw my first osprey today on the nest just before the Lak= e Munro sign if heading towards Annapolis. GSP 20 T 0315466 4932532. Ther= e was also a male and female rusty blackbird at that spot. =20 =20 At the Annapolis Royal Marsh - French Basin Trail was a pied-billed grebe a= nd we enjoyed watching it call. We had gadwalls there and also at Belle Is= le Marsh and Northern Shovelers at both locations. At the Annapolis Royal = Marsh was a female and male Eurasian Wigeon. =20 At the Belle Isle Marsh=2C not rare=2C but a treat were 19 Tree swallows. = There was another group of swallows just outside of Bridgewater=2C and I'm = sure that a barn swallow was with them. David was driving quite fast at th= e speed limit at that point and we did not turn back. =20 =20 At Bridgetown=2C again not rare=2C but there seems to be a lot of them arou= nd this year=2C was a turkey vulture. =20 =20 James R.
