This morning as we were driving on 221 north-west of Berwick, a Crane (most likely a Sandhill Crane)flew over and we followed it until we lost it near Summerset. Yesterday, while paddling on Shell Camp Lake, I encountered six Common Loon swimming and diving together. They all had adult plummage as far as I could tell. This was an unusual occurance for me since I usually encounter only one or two together. There is a large stone island in the lake that, in the past, held a nesting colony of Great Blackbacked Gulls. (They were there for both the first and second Breeding Bird Atlas surveys) This day there was no evidence at all of any Gulls ever being there. I realise it past breeding season but I expected some presence. There was a Cormorant and an immature Bald Eagle at the lake that day also. As an update, over the last week, we have had a continuous emergence of Monarch butterflies from their chrysallids but on Wednesday eight were released into the wild, five of them being tagged. So far 35 have flown away. Regards, Larry -- Larry Bogan Cambridge Station, Nova Scotia larry@bogan.ca
