Saturday morning around 11:00=2C I was in Kingswood Subdivision and found a=
logging road I had not seen before off of Voyager Way in Kingswood West. A=
s I was looking down the road from the entrance I heard a Common Nighthawk =
buzzing just inside the woods about 15 metres from me.=20
Saturday afternoon we walked the Sackville River Trail from Bedford Place M=
all to the Old Sackville Road (about 2.5 km each way.) On this walk we saw =
some Muskrats and a Weasel. Fish were jumping in the river. What surprised =
me here were 2 adult and wha appeared to be a young Osprey flying overhead =
with the young Osprey begging for food. To me this is at least 6 weeks ear=
lier than I have ever seen an young Osprey out of the nest. If I look at th=
e Osprey camera=2C http://museum.gov.ns.ca/osprey/ It seems like she is sti=
ll either incubating or at least keeping small babies warm. I mentioned thi=
s to a friend and he said he saw the same thing (2 adults and apparently a =
baby) flying over Sandy Lake in Bedford last week which is only a few kilom=
etres away.
Saturday night another friend and I walked around Kearney Lake finishing af=
ter sunset. I was nice to see and hear many hermit thrushes in the woods an=
d then while walking on Kearney Lake Road we saw 8 Common Nighthawks flying=
around. On the trail between the end of Saskatoon Drive and the end of Bel=
le Drive we saw several places that had DOZENS of Lady Slippers in bloom.
