Hi all =
=20
I sent the below message yesterday, but I don't see it on either =
narturens or NS RBA. so I will repeat it below. Today ( Dec. 11) I =
trekked though the MacLellan Marsh between along the East R. of Pictou =
below the Aberdeen Hospital. I was hoping for a few regular late fall =
birds such as common yellowthroat and swamp sparrow but no luck. I did =
however see a PIED-BILLED GREBE, a nice uncommon Pictou County winter =
bird. The Lark Sparrow was present in my driveway for a short period =
just after dawn. In the warmer weather birds are spending less time in =
the yard.=20

Hi all =
Dec. 10, 2006 =20
At 7:15 this morning ( Dec. 10) the Lark Sparrow was feeding on =
some scattered seed on my driveway ( 4894 East River East Side Road in =
Plymouth, Pictou Co) and was seen from time to time throughout the day. =
It seemed much more perky than yesterday maybe as a result of the =
constant feeding yesterday evening.=20
I did not see the Little Gull this afternoon as most of the small =
gulls were not at Chance Harbour this afternoon. A good number of small =
gulls (Bonaparte's) were at Powells Point Park and another large number =
of gulls were present at Melmerby Beach Provincial Park where there were =
in excess of "5000" Red-breasted Mergansers at the mouth of Merigomish =
Harbour at dusk.=20
For the winter list, a small flock of 12 CEDAR WAXWINGS were =
observed at Central Caribou this afternoon.=20
cheers
Ken
