I was going to do my breeding bird survey which starts at Jordan Falls, goe=
s into Shelburne and up into Welshtown.  I went out at 03:00 and found that=
 I had to scrape ice off of my windshield.  Who would have thought on June =
4 that ice would be heavy enough on the windshield so that the wipers would=
 not remove it.  Anyhow, I set off and went about a quarter of the way and =
thought to myself, what am I doing?  I turned around and went back home and=
 will run the route later in the month when the weather is warmer and the b=
irds will be singing and calling as they normally would.  The cold would no=
t have made it a valid census.


I'll focus on the western kingbird later in the morning found by John Robar=
t.  This bird was at the old Kirk's Christmas Tree Yard in Bridgewater.  It=
 is at the end of the Glenn Alen Subdivision across from the ball field.  I=
t is an area that provides public access if the bird sticks around.


I also will be checking out the nesting phoebe and if the eastern bluebird =
pair are still around at Vogler's Cove.


I think I'll also go out Western Shore way to a location for olive-sided fl=
ycatcher and black-throated blue warblers that traditionally nest there and=
 check that location out.  I'll post my findings later if successful and wi=
ll send a report through to Dalhousie University in regards to the olive-si=
ded flycatcher.  I will need to go back to Wallace Lake to get a GPS locati=
on for the Canada Warbler for them.
