Hi All=2C Antoinette & I were on Cape Sable Island today (Dec. 2). On our w=
ay down we had a flock of 5 Turkey Vultures along the 101 at Exit 32 (km 25=
). On the island Johnny & Sandra Nickerson showed us the Great Egret (still=
there with a Great Blue Heron) at Daniel's Head. While searching unsuccess=
fully for the American Bittern at the Guzzle=2C we found 2 Snow Geese. Late=
r=2C on our own=2C we had 3 American Pipits where Johnny had said they'd be=
(on the rocky point to the right of where New Road reaches the beach). Mur=
ray Newell parked with us at the IBA sign as we watched the tide go out. Un=
fortunately=2C the shorebirds stayed farther out (as opposed to the closer =
views yesterday). There was a sometimes disjointed flock of at least a hund=
red or two smaller shorebirds=2C consisting mostly=2C if not wholly=2C of D=
unlin and Sanderlings. Wind and sun and watering eyes made observation diff=
icult. Toward the end of our time there=2C one Black-bellied Plover joined =
them. Murray caught sight of a group of probable Black-bellied Plovers in a=
gully farther out. But they did not reappear. Cheers=2C Larry Neily =
