Working in the Orr area today I had a pleasant suprise--4 Boreal Chickadees.

3 of them were on Wein Rd (located about a mile south of the intersection of 
Hwys 73 and 1) in the Black Spruce about 1/4 mile east of 73.  2 of them 
appeared to be carrying some kind of insect larvae--maybe feeding young?  Also 
on this road were many Nashville Warblers, a Blackburnian, and some Golden-
crowned Kinglets.

The other Boreal Chickadee was in the Tamarack along the railroad tracks north 
of CR 517.  Take 73 north out of Orr and turn left on CR 517.  When you come to 
the RR tracks, park and walk about 1/4 mile or so north until you reach swamp 
conifers.  Also along the railroad tracks was a Winter Wren singing and several 
warbler species.
