** Georges Brun got a distant photo of an adult PEREGRINE
FALCON [Faucon pèlerin] perched outside the nest box on the summit of
Assumption Place on Tuesday morning.
** We’ve had lots of damp weather recently; I came across
several large HORSE MUSHROOMS on Monday on a grassed area just off Vaughan
Harvey Blvd in Moncton. There were large and obviously fresh from the night
before as no insect infestation. They will be heading to the griddle today !
Horse Mushrooms are far more prevalent in the fall, but wet conditions can
bring them to life anytime in the spring and summer period.
** There have been several reports this year of BLACK-BILLED
CUCKOO [Coulicou à bec noir]. I very distinctly heard the call of one
from Mount Royal Blvd in Moncton’s West End at 7 am Tuesday. I followed the
call hoping for an observation for a half hour, but it would not produce a
visual observation.
