On Feb. 24=2C I located 12 yellow-rumped warblers.  These birds were along =
the trail by Highliner Foods just as you come out of the woods past the pow=
er generator and can first see the plant.  The fox sparrow was also present=
 there.  From what I saw it appears to be an Interior West Bird.  It defini=
tely is not Tiaga as the stripping was very dark rather then orange. =20

Yesterday=2C David Walmark and I had a male and female green-winged teal on=
 the ice at First South.

In this neck of the woods=2C waxwings=2C and crossbills are very scarce thi=
s winter.  I have seen three separate flocks of waxwings only.  The first w=
as as I was entering the door for work at Bridgewater.  The second this wee=
k as I was driving to work in Bridgewater and yesterday we saw the same flo=
ck three times in Lunenburg.  I was unable to catch these birds as they sat=
 so cannot say for sure whether they were cedar or Bohemians.  Based on siz=
e I would say that I've had both species. =20
