--bcaec544ef2289345004ecf89e03 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Rick Whitman and I went to the French Basin Trail at Annapolis Royal today, before the fresh water is likely to freeze later in the week. Birds of note included 5 Gadwall, 4 N.Pintail, 30+ Hooded Mergansers, 50+ Bufflehead a M.G-W Teal, a F. N.Shoveller, a G. B. Heron that appeared in the middle of the walking trail, and 2 M.Purple Finches at a feeder. Then we went on to Port Royal, where just before the Habitation, there was a Snowy Owl (yes - another one!) being mobbed by Crows in a field by the road. We came back along the Fundy Shore - notable for the small number of waterfowl compared to a few years ago, and no Harlequins. But we did find 6 Purple Sandpipers on the rocks by the Margaretsville light, almost invisible in the rocks despite being very close - until they moved.
