I was passing through the road that cuts around in Broad Cove, which goes b=
y the beach this evening.  I saw a bird on the wires by the road.  When I p=
ulled in so that I could look at it with my binoculars it flew off.  It was=
 the right size and color for a mockingbird, but I cannot rule out shrike o=
r wheatear as a possibility.  There was a nice group of yellow-rumped warbl=
ers there of which the bird had been overlooking.  I could not relocate the=
 bird with much looking.  I'll go back tomorrow for another sweep of the ar=
ea.

Dorothy Poole and I made a run through Port Clyde, Blanche and Bacarro.  Ov=
erall it was quite quiet.  We did see 47 species though.  Numbers of yellow=
-rumped warblers and palm warblers were there.  The only other warbler spec=
ies that we had was a common yellowthroat.  We did have two turkey vultures=
 at Port Clyde and for other raptors, sharp-shinned hawk, two merlins, two =
red-tailed hawks, two bald eagles and a northern harrier.
