hi folks,

of note in Kentville this morning:

*Cornwallis Inn:*
1* Peregrine Falcon* (adult; perched on east 'tower')

eBird: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S18950808

*Miner's Marsh:*
170 *Mallards*
2 *Pied-billed Grebes* (2 adults - the platform they were building the
other day turns out to be a new nest site, they were replacing each other
on the nest this morning, apparently incubating eggs; 2 groups of ducklings
were floating around: 1 group of 2 larger/older ducklings; 1 group of 3
smaller/younger ducklings - they appear to be much different in age, and
possibly from two different broods (there are two broods reported in the
Marsh this season), but could also just be asynchronous hatchers from same
brood...
5 *Chimney Swifts* (this is the largest count I've had in town this season)

no swallows observed for first morning...

James.
