Birds Sightings




















Hi Everyone
Went on the cancer walk yesterday and in central grove and i sighted a Peregrine Falcon fly by quite close. Also sighted a Northern Harrier soaring above the bog just below balancing rock trail.
Todd Sollows sighted a small humpback up off Boars Head a few days ago..... about a half mile off shore.
Today i went for a walk to Northern Light and sighted two Muskrats by the beach. Walked into the woods by the gravel pit and startled 2 Black Ducks by a small pond that has lots of frog eggs in it. Robins, Golden-crowned Kinglets, Black-capped Chickadees were flying in and out of the alders and trees. Pussy Willows are in bloom. At my feeder were lots of Dark-eyed Junco's, Song Sparrows, American Goldflinch, Ring-necked Pheasants. In the tree were Robins and Northern Flickers. Lots of them coming through our Island right now.
