Hi all,
I saw the Ross's Goose at 5:00pm yesterday (found on Rondeau CBC Sunday
by Jim Burk (?) - on my way home - there were no birds there ~1:30 pm.
I spent over an hour at Erieau (with my video) but did not see the
Kittiwake (Blake must have chased it off), however there were 2 Little Gulls
in the marina area (got video of 1) with all the 'bonies' and I saw a third
one on Rondeau bay.
I saw 5 Rough-legged Hawks in the air at one time just north of
Shetland on CR #8.
At Forest SL there was a juvenal blue-morph Snow Goose in the back cell
along with 1 male and 2 female Northern Pintail. Still flocks of Snow
Buntings - but not as huge as in Nov.
At Thedford SL there was just one Tundra Swan with the Canada geese and
on Mollard Line and South Rd. an adult Northern Shrike was hunting the ditch
running west(got video).
This is in reverse chronological order - all after my physiotherapy
session in GB at 10am (really needed it after weekend CBC doubleheader).
Ridgetown SL - turn north of town @ lights ~1km - south side of Mitton
Line which is left before Gosnell Line - viewing platform
Forest SL - SW of town on Brush Line - easy squeeze by gate.
Thedford SL - on east side of Northville Road - continuation of Hwy#79
~1km north of town
Cheers! Maris
