Here are a few photos I've added recently. The first are the Purple =
Sandpipers at Pt. Pleasant Park back on January 23rd:

Here are a Bufflehead pair fron Tufts Cove on Monday February 8th. There =
was the usual Barrows Goldeneye there as well on that day, but I moved =
my car at the wrong time and blew a photo op, as I almost did with these =
two:

Here's another photo, also from Monday, of a male Northern Harrier over =
Sullivans Pond. It really messed me up for I.D. , being that I rarely =
see them this far into the city, rarely view the bird from below, and =
for some reason the vast majority that I have seen over the years have =
been females which, besides having a different color scheme, are very =
obviously larger. The photo link following it is of a borderline mature =
Bald Eagle that is in fact one I had viewed near Rainbow Haven on =
January 24th, but I am placing it here because I viewed one the same day =
as the Harrier near Sullivans Pond  that resembled it quite a bit and =
may well be the same eagle:

And finally, here are a few pics of  a Red-tailed Hawk that I presume I  =
have been seeing all over Dartmouth a lot lately, and with it a usual =
entourage of crows tagging along, but almost always beyond decent photo =
distance. Yesterday it decide to drop by close to...you guessed =
it...near Sullivans Pond, Dartmouth:
