I attached some doc shots to my eBird checklist today. It seems like an =
Eastern to me.

I spent quite some time yesterday and today with the Marsh wren. It's =
quite vocal, but for over an hour today all we could get were very =
brief glimpses as it flitted about low in the thick cat tails. At one =
point it was briefly joined by a Common yellowthroat. I'll keep trying =
for a photo.

Subject: [NatureNS] Probable Marsh Wren Miner's Marsh Kentville=20

Hi All,
Today at about 4:15 I had three quick glimpses of what I believe is a =
marsh wren at Miner's Marsh in Kentville. The bird was in the cat tails =
at the following Google Maps marker:
45.079340, -64.488918
The continuous scolding was what caught my attention. I stood for about =
ten minutes waiting for the bird to come into view, I saw it briefly =
three times. A dark cap with light supercillium and then a dark line on =
the side of its face through the eye. The back was dark brown with light =
streaks over the upper back. The tail was cocked upward once when the =
bird briefly appeared. It skulked in the cat tails and the movement of =
the cat tails revealed its position. In all I saw the bird for only 15 =
to 18 seconds! (three views each five to six seconds)
The Cornell bird site's scold note recording matches what I heard this =
afternoon.
Hopefully the bird will remain in location as one did here in the past!!
George Forsyth
