Hi all:
=20
This morning I was in Lunenburg and Pat wanted to drop into Frenchies by th=
e Railway Museum.  As I got out of the car I heard a yellow-rumped warbler =
singing.  A lot must have come in over the past few days as I heard them si=
nging away at multiple locations.  I went over to listen to the song of the=
 yellow-rumped warbler and it turns out that two were present along with so=
me other species.  I pished to try and draw out some of the species there f=
or a better view and to my surprise what should come along but a Nashville =
warbler.  This is very early in my opinion for this species.  I would also =
consider a killdeer nest early=2C but a lady reported one to me today with =
four eggs at a farm at Union Square.
=20
Along the Lunenburg Back Harbour Trail there were multiple insects=2C or so=
rts of what I would refer to as fake bees.  One species was tiny with a red=
dish abdomen=2C there was another larger one and a very tiny one with purpl=
e wings and an emerald abdomen.  I'll have to get an insect book to key the=
se sorts out.  The tiny one was similar to a sweat bee. =20
