hi Richard and All
Today at Mahone Bay - the bay not the town
where a little brook flows into the salt I saw
water splashing and something black in the middle.
I thought otter but when I put my binos on the spot=2C it
was a crow having a bath. I never saw one with such
an aggressive bath before.
Out in the bay was a flock of about 50 surf coot and the
same number about of cockawees. Whatever they are called today.
Enjoy the rain
Paul
