Highlights were 2 flocks of Snow Buntings totalling 80 birds and several flocks of Bohemian Waxwings attracted to the bright Canada Holly berries. A large alcid species flew by close to 3 flying Red-breasted Mergansers, but I did not see it well enough to give it a name. More detailed results submitted to ebird Canada are below. cheers Ken Location: Big Island Observation date: 07/11/10 Notes: showers ended just before I reached the island and it was close to 20C. Peepers were calling in several locales and there was the odd mosquito. I was joined by Steve and Amber Vines about 2 hours into the survey. Tide was almost high on arrival and dropping but still faily high on departure.
