Wednesday at 10:30 am 6 Snow Geese (2 blue morph) flew over the fields off
French Hill Road just East of Ottawa.
Also Wednesday morning we observed 7 or 8 flocks of Canada Geese flying high
in the area around Petrie Island, Trim Road, Frank Kenny Road, and Navan.
We also saw 8-10 Gray Partridge on the South side of Giroux Road, West of
the ponds where small trees and shrubs are near the road.
