This morning I ventured to Crystal Crescent Beach Provincial Park to mark the sunrise, a ritual with me this time of year.  

At Mackerel Cove's beach there are three Killdeer and one Red Knot. Susann Myers, our shorebird expert,  believes this Red Knot is a,  "member of the roselaari subspecies, that breeds from western Alaska to far eastern Russia."  This is quite the rare bird so go find it: http://www.hanstoom.com/Journal/Journal1.html
