      Hi all,


      Harold Forsyth and I were also at Miner's Marsh on Saturday =
morning, =20
      we saw briefly and heard clearly for five minutes the marsh wren. =
We =20
      sighted many mallards, seven green winged teal, two female =
shovelers, =20
      a few black ducks, two blallards, one coot. The kingfisher was =
very =20
      active, as was an adult red tailed hawk. One pine grosbeak was =
very =20
      vocal as it flew in and landed in a tree above us. The small birds =
=20
      were flitting among the trees and shrubbery along the north slope  =

      behind the marsh. There was one grackle, some downey woodpeckers, =
one =20
      brown creeper, pine siskins, goldfinches, red breasted nuthatch, =
song =20
      and white throated sparrows, and lots of juncos.


      We met and spoke with James, but the lists look like we were =
either in =20
      different areas or on different days!  Amazing that this small =
area =20
      can hide so many birds.

      Quoting James Churchill <jameslchurchill@gmail.com>:


        Hi folks,
        On a cold morning at Miner's Marsh (Kentville; 9:30 to 11:00 =
am):


        - no sign of an ammodramus sparrow
        - 2 *American Tree Sparrows*
        - 1 *adult male Wilson's Warbler *(yikes! Brrr...)


        Both species were found in a large mixed flock, along the North =
trail,
        containing primarily *White-throated Sparrows*, *Song Sparrows*, =
*Pine
        Siskins* and a male and female *Northern Cardinal* (and other =
usual
        residents).


        Cheers,
        James.
