Richard Stern & I set out to check his Owl Route on the Mines Road west of Falmouth. It was plowed as far as West Branch Avon River bridge and strictly a ski-doo trail W of there. It likely won't be passable for 3-4 weeks and the owl survey is in doubt this year. On the way out I spotted a Broad-winged Hawk which we both photographed from inside the car. I know Richard will add one to our eBird report and my best one is here: http://rickwhitman.smugmug.com/Nature/Birds-April-June-2015/i-4RmCBTS/A We carried on to Lunenburg Co. and birded at Graves Island P.P., Chester village, Mahone Bay, Maders Cove, Second Peninsula, Garden Lots and Blue Rocks. We saw modest numbers of late winter ducks: Long-tailed Duck, Bufflehead, Common Goldeneye, a light-phase Rough-legged Hawk, at least nine Great Blue Herons and Tree Swallows. At the big marsh at Garden Lots there were two Greater Yellowlegs, our only shorebirds today. Rick Whitman
