1 December 2009 - Winter Birding has Begun!

Prospect area:

A quick check of the immediate area when walking the pooch produced 
the following:

Spotted Towhee at the Hawkins' feeder in Hatchet Lake (details on the 
NS-Rare Bird Alert) - tinyurl.com/rbans

Northern Cardinal in my yard here in White's Lake

A very good selection of waterfowl (for the Head of Prospect Bay, 
that is) - Red-breasted and Hooded Mergansers, Bufflehead, American 
Black Duck, and the lone, lingering female Greater Scaup.

Other yard birds: White-throated Sparrow, Song Sparrow, Boreal 
Chickadee, junco, Downy and Hairy Woodpecker, Red-breasted Nuthatch.

The NS Winter Birding web page is:  tinyurl.com/nswinter    and I'll 
update the page this evening.

Cheers, and good Winter Birding,

Blake
