- at least 2 *Purple Martins* (heard on Highland Ave., one street below Forest Hill). I was unable to go find these (dad duty), but I can tell that they are perched or grounded, not flying around. According to current April eBird reports they are nearly as northeast as Bangor, Maine and Trois Rivieres, Quebec: http://ebird.org/ebird/canada/map/purmar?neg=true&env.minX=-137.07075189393015&env.minY=4.808087376299438&env.maxX=3.554248106069849&env.maxY=54.509330173088934&zh=true&gp=false&mr=on&bmo=4&emo=4&yr=2013-2013&byr=2013&eyr=2013 - the most recent eBird record for this area is from James Hirtle in the Canning area in April 29, 2007, but there must be some more recent local records? - I would guess these are likely migrants or overshoots (see Ian McLaren's, *All the Birds of Nova Scotia*) as we have very few recent breeding records in NS based on the Maritimes Breeding Bird Atlas - maybe someone can refind and confirm these - 2 male *Yellow-rumped Warblers* in our yard (1 singing) cheers, James. -- James Churchill Kentville, Nova Scotia Email: jameslchurchill@gmail.com Phone (h): (902) 681-2374 --001a11c37576f7ae0604db6b90a3 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">Hi folks,=A0<div><br></div><div>From my backyard this morn= ing around 9:30 (28 forest Hill Rd., Kentville):</div><div><br></div><div>-= at least 2 <b>Purple Martins</b> (heard on Highland Ave., one street below= Forest Hill).
