Hi all
Yesterday morning I was on the old abandoned railway track to the middle riv=
er of Pictou from the Granton end when I startled a pair of Baltimore Oriole=
s which must have had a nest or young nearby. The female was carrying food.=20=

I have seen orioles here other years as well. They seem pretty faithful to a=
 territory.=20
Along the inner side of the Pictou causeway I saw 2 male Greater Scaup and 2=
 imm male Common Eider- an somewhat odd spot for this latter species.=20
Cheers
Ken

ve flown or tree-hopped. I didn't see the parents, but I left it alone and i=
