Index of Subjects Hi, Ian. I did a few chores at the cottage in 3 Fathom Harbour today, and then did a bit of birding by car. I had one Willet in Three Fathom Harbour (1 first heard a week ago) and one at the Conrad Road marsh. Also saw a few swallows hawking for insects over water, in the early afternoon: Grand Desert - pond behind the beach - 9 Barn, 3 Tree; Shore Rd., W. Chezzetcook - 1 Tree; Seaforth, along the hwy. - 1 Tree. Cheers, Susann Myers ----- Original Message ----- From: <iamclar@dal.ca> To: "Nature NS" <naturens@chebucto.ns.ca> Sent: Sunday, April 29, 2012 3:30 PM Subject: [NatureNS] Where are the Willets? > All: > > Bernice & I drove the Eastern Shore to 3-Fathom Hbr today, with limited > walking.
