**As announced yesterday, a Nature Moncton field trip is on today visiting wharves along the coast. A contact number for anyone who wants to join during the day or is late in getting away and wants to join the group, is 289-439-3600 to find out where the group is at the moment and join in.

Scroll back to yesterday’s edition for complete details of the day.

 

**Georges Brun sends an unconfirmed report about the  Steller’s Sea Eagle on Ward Road in Cocagne. No doubt more to come tomorrow!

 

**John Massey has noticed that when the crows are not about, his Barred Owl yard patrons just sit in the sun and watch him going about his chores. This scenario has happened several times. They also perch in trees in the yard at night even though his yard is lit up at night. John has never seen mice or voles outside anymore either!

 

Scott Makepeace has donated Barred Owl nest boxes to Nature Moncton which arrived on Wednesday. John promptly erected two of these boxes with the photos attached.

Scott advised it was a good idea to erect two boxes in the same area as in his experience, it seemed more likely one would be taken by a pair of Barred Owls with two boxes in proximity.
