Hi all,
This afternoon at ~3:30 I observed 3 Snow Geese on the beach ~4/500 M south
of the pier - 2 were blue and 1 white morph. There were also about a dozen
Bonaparte's Gull flying around close to shore.
Tuesday there were many more 'bonies' here, along with 5 Ruddy Duck and
from Beach #3 in Pinery P.P. I saw 8 Horned Grebe. In the big burn area towards
Burleigh bridge I saw 2 male E. Bluebird, 5/6 Purple Finch 3 Red-headed
Woodpecker(2 ad. + 1 juv.) plus 1 ad. at the burn near the maintenance area.
Birds seem to be on the move in this area despite all the southerly winds
this week. Cheers! Maris
