Many thanks for taking the trouble to do the field trip report for us! I
saw the male purple finch in the same spot you were looking at the rose
breasted grosbeak. Blackburn warblers were also missing as well. Where di=
d
you see the Kingbird??
Hanka, a Czech Republic post graduate student (Dal), really enjoyed your
birding outing with you and got to see Lunenburg and Mahone Bay=8A. We went
on to explore a bit more and found black bellied plovers, willets, AND a
huge Peregrine Falcon chasing one of the BB plovers in the Crescent Beach
area! =20
Many thanks for making sure six of us saw various birds listed below! I
hope Suzanne Borkowski and Andy de Champlain will do theirs for us. Thanks
again.

I had six people show up for the field trip. Not as many species as normal
and it was my impression that warblers numbers and other species numbers
were down substantially. No yellow warblers or magnolia warblers, which wa=
s
disconcerting. Also, on the Spring Migration Count there were plentiful
Nashville and palm warblers. No Nashvilles were found on the outing and
only one palm. Swallows were also scarce. Anyhow, the list was:
1. Rock Pigeon

other birds.

I heard ruby-throated hummingbird also, and might have seen one, but it als=

could have been a Sphinx moth. Dorothy Poole also heard a Swainson's
Thrush.
