Subject: [NatureNS] Orioles, Dickcissel etc. still in Halifax
The Dickcissel continues to hang out with the flock of House =
Sparrows in my back yard - last seen this afternoon. The House Sparrows =
are showing more and more courtship behaviour. It will be interesting =
to see how long the Dickcissel stays around this flirtatious crowd.
A seventh Baltimore Oriole arrived on February 3, and all 7 are =
still present and doing well despite the cold nights. Oriole #6, which =
arrived in starving condition Jan. 30, was in good condition within a =
week. As I saw this morning, his recovery has been supported by double =
rations of mealworms. Because he's a very bright male, and was =
desperate and aggressive when he first arrived, the other orioles seem =
unwilling to enter a feeding cage with him, so he's eating the worms =
that I'm providing for 2 orioles to share.
The number of adult male Brown-headed Cowbirds in the yard rose to 3 =
on February 4, but is back down to 2 since Saturday, Feb. 11.
The Song Sparrows in the yard have been singing their full spring =
breeding songs for over 2 weeks now. The Cowbirds are also "singing".=20
Cheers,
Susann Myers
