Index of Subjects --20cf301cbe8ab49bfa04d899a37b Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 hi folks, I neglected to submit some reports from this past Thursday and Friday: Thursday, 11:30 am. *Kentville Ravine* - *Bald Eagle on nest* in "incubating posture" (not necessarily incubating); *Evening Grosbeak*flying overhead. Friday, 9:00 a.m. *Miner's Marsh *(raw eBird list below) - highlights included a *Glaucous Gull*, 2 male *Hooded Mergansers*, 2 male *Red-winged Blackbirds*, and 3 *Evening Grosbeaks*. By the way, a couple of walkers at the Marsh indicated there *might be a Bald Eagle nest* somewhere near "the point". By 'the point' they indicated somewhere along the northeast side of the marsh near the lookout tower (or beyond). They were unsure both about the species to which the nest belonged, and the location. However, something for Miner's visitors to keep an eye out for (or maybe this one has already been discovered). An additional note, is that I've been trying out a* "gadget" for streaming eBird observations* - "BirdTrax". Others might have stumbled upon this as well and this could be a good thing to have on some of our naturalist sites (?). I've set an example one up here if you'd like to play around with it: http://bluehourbirding.blogspot.ca/ cheers, James.
