**Anna Tucker had a
very pleasant surprise to step outside her apartment building on St George
Street on Friday evening to find a fruit tree loaded with a blend of BOHEMIAN
WAXWINGS [Jaseur boréal] and AMERICAN ROBINS [Merle d'Amérique] enjoying their
feast as much as Anna enjoyed them.
**The FOX SPARROWS
[Bruant fauve] seem to be really on the move into New Brunswick en route to more
northerly breeding grounds later. Sally Jackson is another that has had one
arrive to her Saint John feeder yard.
**Brian Stone shares
some birds he’s noting around his relatives’ home in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia at
the moment, including NORTHERN CARDINALS [Cardinal rouge],
DARK-EYED JUNCOS [Junco
ardoisé], SONG SPARROWS [Bruant chanteur], and WOODPECKERS [Pic], including a
PILEATED WOODPECKER [Grand Pic]. And Brian has noted BLUE JAYS [Geai bleu]
picking dead branches from a tree, obviously with nest construction in
mind.
