Hartlen Point
The Snowy Owl is still hanging around the golf course at Hartlen Point =
this morning.  He gave me several pictures that I have included in my =
gallery.  Also a few other birds noted as follows:

Eastern Passage
2 Willets at MacCormack's Beach
10 or 12 Surf Scoters in southern approach to the passage
25+ Common Eider

Flag Pond =E2=80=93 Cow Bay
4 Red-winged Blackbirds
1 American Goldfinch

Rainbow Haven
Willets and Yellowlegs dispersed throughout the salt marsh
1 Great Blue Heron
2 Common Loons in the lagoon (probably molting as they do not leave or =
fly)
A few Song Sparrows and Savannah Sparrows in the shrubbery near the =
beach house and outer parking lot.
6+ Tree Swallows =E2=80=93 very cranky =E2=80=93 nesting in boxes near =
houses on road to gun club=20
