Wed May 2 : two Tree Swallows seen on overhead wires near the Wolfville Ridge Stile Park. Today (Sun) a pair were seen flying over the field across from our house. Wed May 2: pair Chipping Sparrows under our feeders. Today (May 6) : mid-afternoon a male Hummingbird arrived, heading straight to our awaiting feeder. (I believe this is earliest hummingbird arrival record for us) - a bright male White-throated Sparrow turned up in our back yard. Bernard Forsythe reports an Ovenbird on his property today. He added he has been hearing winter wrens in quite a few places, and Blue-headed Vireos and Hermit Thrushes, as he checks his many owl nest boxes, and the progress of 'his' Barred Owl families. He is very disappointed that there will not be any resident owl family on his own property this year. The female failed to show any interest in 'setting up home'. The other nest box near us (about a km from Bernard's ) has failed to materialize due to raccoons taking over the nest box. As a result this will be the first year for him that no Barred Owls are nesting in his boxes on the Ridge Rd. Very sad for him. Cheers, Judy Tufts >>>>>>>> Judy Tufts Wolfville <<<<<<<<
