as able to hear at least seven more singing as though on territory. These =
were the first that I had heard or seen since returning to Nova Scotia in 2=

Kingston and Kentville where they used to occur (such as the Paragon Golf =
Club) in other years without success=2C and so was delighted to find an app=
arently viable breeding population here.
