This morning's snow squalls brought us a pair of common grackle down here on
Wyman Road, south of Yarmouth. A female redwing was awaiting me on my
return from town, later in the morning.

Subject: [NatureNS] Update to the Blake Maybank Winter Bird List (160)
We added 3 new species to bring us to 160.
Glaucous Gull - Ken McKenna, Fred Mackenzie - Caribou and Monroes Island PP,
Pictou County (Dec 1)
Eastern Phoebe - Alix d'Entremont, Kathleen MacAulay - Sable River,
Shelburne County (7 years in a row)
Lark Sparrow - Les Rutherford, Pine Ridge Lane, Colchester County
(continuing from mid November)
The following are some of the core species we have yet to add to the WBL.
Common Yellowthroat - We never miss this one but it remains a notable miss
so far. The last one was spotted on Forest St, Yarmouth on Nov 26.
Hermit Thrush - Probably our most surprising miss to date but they have made
it on to the DOWL the last 18 out 20 years so just a matter of time.
Killdeer - Our last one was Nov 18 on Cape Sable Island, Cape Sable.
Ruddy Turnstone - Not seen since Nov 4 at Hartlen Point
Wilson's Snipe - I'm sure one will turn up some time.
Atlantic Puffin - A select few manage to get them on every WBL.
American Woodcock - Just a matter of time
Brown Thrasher - last one was seen in Digby County on Nov 26
In addition, we get Blue-winged Teal 9 times out of 10. The last ones were
spotted at Kingsburg Beach, Nov 25.
Winter Bird List (WBL) runs from Dec 1 - to Feb 29
Depth of Winter List (DOWL) runs from Feb 28
