Yesterday, Oct 25, on the main dyke just S of East Point, N. Grand Pre, I flushed a Great Horned Owl that was right on the dyke. It flew a short distance to an older dyke where it tucked in to some of the salt tolerant plants. It must have stayed there for hours because today there were two substantial pellets. I have a fine photo of the owl & equally fine photos of the pellets, for those of you into coprology. http://tinyurl.com/9ydrxt6 When the owl flew, several crows immediately flew in for close looks but did not stick around at all. On my return trip, I saw two ravens do the same thing. I was struck that they left also after a single look, a very different reaction from their extreme attacks on Short-eared Owls. Yesterday I had a pale Savannah Sparrow, just S of East Point, which did not make the grade with Ian as an Ipswich. I think the photo is useful as a not-Ipswich. Today I had my first Snow Bunting of this fall just S of East Point, also photographed. Rick Whitman
