I saw the male purple finch in the same spot you were looking at the rose breasted grosbeak. Blackburn warblers were missing as well. Where did you see the Kingbird?? We also saw the Veery. We, including Hanka, a Czech Republic post graduate student (Dal), really enjoyed your birding outing=8A. Hanka and I went on to explore a bit more an= d found black bellied plovers, willets, AND a huge Peregrine Falcon chasing a BB plover in the Crescent Beach area! No, it didn't get its supper. Befor= e heading home, I showed her Lunenburg and Mahone Bay. Many thanks for taking the time to ensure we got to see as many birds liste= d below! =20 PS I hope Suzanne Borkowski and Andy de Champlain will do theirs for us. Thanks again. Cheers, Liz=20 Sunday, May 29, 2016 at 8:45 PM Conquerall Mills Field Trip I had six people show up for the field trip. Not as many species as normal and it was my impression that warblers numbers and other species numbers were down substantially. No yellow warblers or magnolia warblers, which wa= s disconcerting. Also, on the Spring Migration Count there were plentiful Nashville and palm warblers. No Nashvilles were found on the outing and only one palm. Swallows were also scarce. Anyhow, the list was: 1. Rock Pigeon 2. American Redstart 3. European Starling 4. Mourning Dove=20 5. Yellow-rumped Warbler 6. American Goldfinch 7. Song Sparrow=20 8. American Robin=20 9. Northern Parula=20 10.
