I went to a different lake this evening for ten minutes. There were 70 Ame=
rican tree swallows coarsing over the water surface and one common loon. I=
saw other birds=2C but will not mention them. This shows tree swallows ba=
ck in force today.

Hi all:
=20
Well=2C I've got the car blues. Either a transmission or the part that con=
trols the drive sector. A solonoid? I thus canceled my plans to go to Amh=
erst for the Region Co-ordinator Atlas meeting and got a rent a car for the=
time that it will take to get a prognosis on my vehicle and get it fixed. =
With Pat feeling under the weather I went out for a jaunt and to run some =
errands. There had been a white egret reported at Back Harbour Lunenburg. =
While looking for this bird I discovered an abnormal cormorant. I'll put =
a description in as to what was different about it tomorrow=2C one Eric has=
a chance to look for it. We will likely have to list it as an unknown. I=
did not have my bird book with as I was in the rent a car and assumed that=
it was a phase or something I had not noticed in the thousands of double-c=
rested cormorants that I've observed over the years. Anyhow=2C more about =
this bird will appear tomorrow. =20
=20
I snuck away to the lake for a while and was enjoying the bird life and the=
trout breaking the surface after insects for about 10 minutes when my reel=
broke. Not a good weekend. Anyhow=2C before my reel went defective I was=
able to hear a barred owl calling. I observed my first tree swallows with=
nine and a hermit thrush flew in front of me and started to call. A swamp=
sparrow was vocal on the other side and I also heard two wood ducks and sa=
w them in flight. A northern flicker was vocal and I heard and saw many ot=
her species all in the span of 10 minutes. Oh well thats lady luck for you=
or not.
