Subject: Fieldfare in Apple River
Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2015 20:34:56 -0400
From: Hans <htoom@hfx.eastlink.ca>
To: NS-RBA@yahoogroups.com
I visited the Fieldfare in Apple River, Nova Scotia, February 27, for
the second time. This was a day trip with a 6AM departure from
Portuguese Cove.
This is a probably the only one I'll ever see here so it was well worth
the effort of a second trip. The roads were not as good as on my first
visit but the weather was greatly improved with bright sun and
occasional cloud cover.
The bird was hard to photograph even though it was cooperative. The
problem is all those intervening twigs and branches on the apple tree
that compromise focusing.
It did come out into the open occasionally, a few times on a branch and
once on the snow. When it was on the snow it was picking up dropped bits
of apple, a very tidy bird.
I stayed for about two hours and headed home satisfied that I couldn't
accomplish much more.
