Subject: Eastern Kingbird(confirmed)


I was driving home when I spotted the tall ship Simon Bolivar departing =
the harbour just off Portuguese Cove. I rushed out to Chebucto Head and =
perched myself on a rock and was photographing the ship when a dark bird =
with a lot of white whisked by me. I had the wrong lens setup for bird =
photography but I captured three blindly shot images of the bird before =
it was scared off by rock climbers coming up the road.

The photographs though poor after severe enlargement nevertheless =
confirmed the bird as Eastern Kingbird.

Laura and I will take this evening's constitutional to Chebucto Head and =
Duncan's Cove to try and find the bird.

Hans
