SWALLOWS [Hirondelle de rivage] were still very busy feeding their young at the
Bouctouche Dune on Friday. Brian Stone got some photos with the very wide-open
gaping mouths of the nestlings getting their lunch delivered.
**As
we know, MALLARD Ducks [Canard colvert] can become quite used to humans. Kevin
and Jean Renton had a hen Mallard come by their Stilesville deck for food laid
out on Friday, and it went one step farther and wandered right into the house
through an open patio door.
**The
BLACK-BELLIED PLOVERS [Pluvier argenté] are arriving on schedule. Aldo Dorio got
a photo of a Black-bellied Plover on Friday, as well as a VIRGINIA CTENUCHA Moth
[Cténuche de Virginie] nectaring on JOE-PYE-WEED [Eupatoire maculée], an insect
favourite nectaring plant at the moment.
