Hi all
The north wind finally switched and opened a little window to let in a =
few migrants.It has been rather quiet for the last week.  I spent the =
morning in the Irish Mtn.-Brookville area of Pictou Co. Early on, just =
after dawn, I could tell there was an increased number of Myrtle and =
Palm Warblers from my last visit , but as the mist lifted, I also had 2 =
Black and White Warblers and a Black-throated Green Warbler. This was =
soon followed by a Nashville Warbler.  Later at Willard Fraser Rd., I =
had a Northern Parula and a Spotted Sandpiper. On the Brook Rd.there =
were 4 singing Black-throated Green Warblers giving both versions of the =
song.=20
I was able to photo a couple of American Ladies, and a Cabbage White. A =
Red Admiral got away while I was aiming! I also photoed a brown Ode., =
but not sure what.=20
There are still spring beauties and  American fly honeysuckle in bloom =
but also starting to see dwarf ginseng in bloom now. Nodding trillium =
still in bud and I saw a nice patch of Dutchman's Breeches still in =
bloom at Irish Mtn.
Nice day here.=20
cheers
ken
