Hi Randy and All

I don't keep as good of records as I should but I Photographed the one =
that arrived very early here in Canso in 2009. My first photos were =
taken on July 10th and I remember showing this bird to locals and =
visitors for about 8-10 days. The children could swimm within 3 feet of =
it and it was often too close to photograph.

Hope this helps.

  Subject: [NatureNS] Early Dovekie records?


  All,


  I've got a smattering of bones and feathers which seem to match =
Dovekie, though this seems very early. Tufts (1986) says the earliest =
record was 15 October, but I suspect there may be earlier sightings =
recorded since then. The partial carcass I have was found on 7 =
September...does anyone have a record that early?


  Thanks,
  Randy
