Update: Eurasian Collared-Dove in Canso

Eric Mills and I drove to Canso today, and went to the home of Harry 
and Roseanne Delorey.   We viewed the dove a couple of times between 
10:45 and 11:30.   The bird has now been present for eight days at 
this location.

The dove usually makes three appearances daily, around 0730-0800, 
then sometime between 1030 and 1200, and again in the late 
afternoon.   It only arrives with Mourning Doves, and then only after 
the Mourning Doves have begun feeding.  The Collared-Dove is the last 
to arrive.   It is easily spooked, and very wary, and can only be 
viewed from with the Delorey's house.

Accordingly, please contact Harry and Roseanne in advance of your 
visit, and do NOT try to view the bird from outside, as it will not appear.

The Deloreys welcome visitors, but ask that you conact them 
first.  Their e-mail 
is:  <mailto:rahdel@ns.sympatico.ca>rahdel@ns.sympatico.ca, and their 
phone number is 902-366-2680.

Good luck.
