This was a day trip with a 6AM departure from Portuguese Cove. This is a probably the only one I'll ever see here so it was well worth the effort of a second trip. The roads were not as good as on my first visit but the weather was greatly improved with bright sun and occasional cloud cover. The bird was hard to photograph even though it was cooperative. The problem is all those intervening twigs and branches on the apple tree that compromise focusing. It did come out into the open occasionally, a few times on a branch and once on the snow. When it was on the snow it was picking up dropped bits of apple, a very tidy bird. I stayed for about two hours and headed home satisfied that I couldn't accomplish much more.
