Hi all, This morning there was an immature snow goose at Lasalle Park hanging around with the Canada geese immediately west of the parking area.
Other notables: raft of male common mergansers at the tip of the shoals east of the marina (need scope to view well) hooded merganser - 1 pair near boat launch scattered white-winged scoters Areas around the marina are starting to freeze up and Environment Canada is calling for temperatures near -20 degrees Celsius tonight, so this afternoon might be your best best to see these birds in the near future. Sunset is at 4:55 p.m. Pete Scholtens Hamilton, ON _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
