My mother had a Gray Jay visit her feeder last week in East Dalhousie. =
Apparently the pair are still in the area. The whir of forest =
machinery cutting down the woods last night as we looked for Barred Owls =
(and found at least 3 individuals residing near Spectacle Lake) was =
extraordinary. How will Gray Jays nest and survive in the bits of =
habitat remaining? =20
=20
How much of the decline of boreal birds is from climate change and how =
is much from forest removal and/or fragmentation that favors Blue Jays, =
Crows, etc? =20
=20
Lots of Ruffed Grouse this year. I keep looking for Spruce Grouse, but =
none observed so far.

=E2=80=8EHi John,
I have been keeping track of Gray Jay, Spruce Grouse and Boreal =
Chickadee sightings for a few years now. I spend a lot of time =
throughout most of the province and I find these species, along with a =
few other boreal birds hard to find SW of Lunenburg. I'm not sure where =
you're from in SW N.S. but I'm curious to know if there's always been a =
lack of these boreal=E2=80=8E species there or have you noticed a =
decline over the years? =20
=20
Thanks,
=20
Chris

And down here in the Banana Belt, they are not noteworthy. Ditto for =
cardinals.

Evening grosbeaks, Canada jays, and boreal chickadees, on the other =

In 24 hours, I doubled my Turkey Vulture count for Antigonish Co., with =
two soaring over Ohio yesterday around 5:30, and one gliding over my =
land (new yard bird!) this afternoon.
