Hi Tuma - I believe the robin is on a Canada Holly (Ilex verticillata
(L.) Gray.
but check the excellent pictures and write ups on the Wild Flora
website http://www.nswildflora.ca for False Holly,
Nemopanthus mucronatus (L.) Loes. , for comparison.
The Wild Flora Society meets tonight at the Museum of Natural History.
Our president, Charlie Cron will give an illustrated talk on the flora
of the gypsum karst on the Avon peninsula. His photos are amazing and
informative. I think you would enjoy it! Cheers, Joan
/Nemopanthus mucronatus/ (L.) Loes.

Nick and I drove out to try and see the Bell's Vireo but no luck. However, we
did see the 2 Orange Crowned Warblers. We then went to Sandy Cove but we only
saw Black-capped Chickadees. We then drove out to Crystal Crescent Beach to
find it blocked with huge boulders. Seems it is closed for the season. We saw
a hairy woodpecker and a white-throated sparrow. Drove back to Chebucto Head
Road where we were surprised by a Baltimore Oriole, along with a number of
Yellow-rumped warblers, and a number of American Robins.
I took a record shot of the Oriole but I wanted to ask if anyone can identify
the berries that the American Robins were eating. I have posted the picture to
my gallery:

Go to album titled: Thrashers and Thrushers, click on it, click on the picture
of the Jipja'wej (American Robin) and you can see the bird eating a berry. I
would appreciate any assistance in this matter.
On our way back, we went to see the Bell's vireo-we did see a vireo but a
glimpse and no picture-we could not tell if it was the one or different vireo.
Just know that it was a vireo.
