--089e01227ee054f5a605156ceaa1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 About 70 *Tree Swallows* buzzing around Miner's Marsh today at lunch. Many investigated and perched on several of the new nest boxes. One entered a box. The *previously photo'd, banded individual (right leg CWS silver band, left leg dark/black band) was not observed*. However, I got a long, clear, close look through the scope at what is *possibly a second banded bird*. This bird was facing the scope, standing on top of the box and both legs could be seen well; the right leg had a silver CWS band and the left leg had no bands. The usual alternative explanations are possible: that the black band fell off the first individual, or it had slid far enough up the left leg to be hidden by feathers. A Barred Owl calling also. cheers, James -- James Churchill Kentville, Nova Scotia jameslchurchill@gmail.com (902) 681-2374 --089e01227ee054f5a605156ceaa1 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">About 70 <b>Tree Swallows</b> buzzing around Miner's M= arsh today at lunch.
