--Boundary_(ID_FxuylNF0U6Up8aEQh3dPjQ) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT NOV. 19, 2009 - Windsor sewage ponds (1 hr. after high tide): 12+ Canada geese, 17+ Am. wigeons, 4+ green-winged teals, several dozens of black ducks, 1+ mallard, good numbers of each of 3 kinds of gulls: ring-billed, herring, and great black-backed; and only 2 probable black-bellied plovers, which were asleep the whole time I was there. And another approx. 200 Canada geese were in open fields north of Hwy. 14 west from Curry's Corner? (jct. of King St. & Hwy. 14). I made a bad error at the Hwy. 14 pond/stream where domestic white geese and various semi-tame ducks hang out -- I tried to turn around in the field grass and got hopelessly mired -- one of the very kind and too-polite farmers there pulled me out with his tractor and chain and refused a token payment.
