--089e0112c86c624919050d699671 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Yesterday 3 of us went down to Brier island for a day of birding. Even though it was only. - 4C, there was a strong west wind, and in the exposed spots such as Northern Point and Pond Cove beach it felt very raw, although sunny. There were large numbers of inshore seabirds, e. g sea ducks, Guillemots etc., with a pair of Harlequins and a F. Barrows goldeneye being the stars. But real sea watching was very dead, not even a passing Gannet or Alcid. The woods were very quiet too, and the only slightly unusual birds were some Common Redpoll and Pine siskins at a feeder in Westport. We couldn't find A Boreal chickadee despite much searching and pishing. The only raptors were 4 T. Vultures and a single Bald eagle. There were about 500+ Eiders off Tiverton, and almost none on Brier.
