When I got home, I did some research and Say's Phoebe was a very close matc= h.=C2=A0 If anything, the colour on the belly was brighter than depicted in= the field guides and online. The next day was Saturday and it was raining followed by very high winds on= Sunday.=C2=A0 So on Monday I went back (with my camera this time) but stil= l couldn't locate the bird. Directions:=C2=A0 Follow Ostrea lake Road (about 5 km east of Musquodoboit = Harbour) almost to the end to house #2917.=C2=A0 This house is at the end o= f a causeway separating open water from a boggy, swampy field with a small = stagnant pond in it, close to the road.=C2=A0 The bird was seen in the tree= s and bushes at the edge of this field. Hopefully, someone else can find it and get a picture of it.
