** Eric Wilson who lives in Moncton’s
north end in a newer but well-treed subdivision has had good patronage from RED-BREASTED NUTHATCHES
[Sittelle à poitrine rousse]; however,
he was very pleased to have a WHITE-BREASTED NUTHATCH [Sittelle à poitrine blanche] show up 3 times to his feeder area on
Saturday, and he is hoping it stays as he is very much looking forward to
hearing them both and watching the different cadence and behaviour of these
related species. He had one visit
approximately 5 years ago. His wish list
now has expanded to Northern Cardinal.
** The monthly October meeting for
Nature Moncton scheduled for Tuesday night (October 20) is going to
happen. John Klymko will give a
presentation on dragonflies and damselflies.
This will be a virtual meeting, and anyone can listen to it from home,
and questions can be fielded by the moderator, Fred Richards. Fred has been working hard to decide what
system we will use of the several that have become available, and more details
will follow about how to join the meeting and hopefully view it afterward if
necessary as we plan to record it. There
are several things we all must adapt to in order to use the system which may
seem different at first but is really quite simple. Participants will go to a link to hook up
with the meeting. I’m expecting to get
the link on the Nature Line on or before Tuesday, so people can click on it to
join the meeting and the presentation Tuesday evening at 7:00 PM.
