Millhaven. It can be reached from the 401 by taking exit 593 south to

thereafter on the half hour. The return trip leaves Stella (the main town on
Amherst I.) on the hour. The KFN Property is east of Lower Rd. and the Owl

2.) At Cartwright Pt. #14 The Point Rd. the pair of TUFTED TITMICE were at
our feeders from 0900 to 1500. They were accompanied with a RED-BREASTED
NUTHATCH, on nearby Warbler Lane 2 PILEATED WOODPECKERS were mining 2 pines.
Don McCallum at #3 Woodpecker Lane had the E. SCREECH OWL basking in the Owl
box across the Lane from his house on Nov. 12.
Eleanor Sachs and I stopped to look for his owl today. It was not visable
but it was there down out of sight. For proof, a BLUE JAY protested loudly
around the openning and 2 TUFTED TITMICE appearing agitateed also fluttered
around the box. Evidence that the TUFTED TITMICE do roam around the
neighbourhood.
