Dec. 31 I hope this may help with count week for the Huntsville count
week in a small way...
1 Boreal Chickadee, 4 Canada Jays, 1 Spruce Grouse at the Spruce Bog.
12 White-winged Crossbills, 2 more Canada Jays
Jan. 1 In spite of the rain, Boreal Chickadee still at Spruce Bog with
the usual suspects but no Grouse but I enjoyed the Red-breasted Nuthatch
pair that ate seeds out of my hand.
11 Common and one Hoary Redpoll at the gate on Opeongo Rd.
1 Ruffed Grouse at the visitor center and very little else happening. No
Black-backed Woodpeckers for us so we'll have to setlle for the Pine
Martin at the Bog and the Mom and 2nd year tot Moose at km 20ish.
There were 7 Wild Turkeys at the feeders of the Algonquin Inn at the
Oxtongue River Bridge.
A nice getaway.
Directions: Go 30 km east of Huntsville on Highway 60 and check in for a
map at the west gate welcome centre of the park.
Happy New Year,
Ken and Angie Williams
