--bcaec5540a70067d4604aa68381c Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi, Rick Whitman and I went to Hartlen Point this morning to look for Buff-breasted sandpipers - No luck! However, as soon as we stepped out of the car, 25 Whimbrel flew over, and tried to land on the golf course. There were a lot of golfers out, so they were frustrated in that, but later we found them in the seaweed and rocks on the shoreline. Indeed the only other shorebirds were a few Least sandpipers and both Yellowlegs in and near Back Cove. For us from the Valley where they are rare, the active Osprey nest, with both adults tending 2 young, was nice to see and take pictures of. There was a distant N.Harrier, and a F.Common yellowthroat carrying food, amongst the expected birds. We came across Andy Horn, who told us he had seen 2 Canada warblers in Back Cove. On the way home at high tide time in the Minas Basin we saw 19 Black-b. plovers at the Windsor sewage plant. Richard -- ################# Richard Stern, 317 Middle Dyke Rd.
