HI all, I picked up a little Dovekie in my community from someone Saturday.
SHe was walking down the road and it hit her in the head! I often get these
little guys after high winds. It was in good condition but a little tired.
Gave it some fluids and food, let it swim around in my laundry sink for a
while to assure it was completely waterproof and kep it in captivity for
about 24 hours. It was pretty vigorous so once I was sure it was OK I drove
it to Pictou and let it go. It was VERY excited to be back in the water,
steamed off away from me at a rapid pace and I saw it diving several times
until it became a speck on the horizon. Always a treat to see these birds

  Hi All:

  I received an email today complete with photos of a great egret, which
arrived with all of the wind yesterday in the marsh area across from 607
Oakland Road in Lunenburg Co.  The Oakland road can be accessed if coming
from Western Shore a few miles before Mahone Bay, or on the other end if
leaving Mahone Bay.
