Still not much in the way of subject matter here, but in the past number of days we have seen a good influx of waterfowl, as expected this time of year. Some wintering ducks are still hanging out on the St. Clair River. I did not get much in the way of photos this past weekend.
Tundra Swans are on the move, and I have seen hundreds every day near Wallaceburg.
Greater White-fronted Geese are certainly regular anymore, and Lambton County has had more than its share. Various groups have been seen, and 52 were reported at Kettle Point this morning! I saw a few fly over Wawanosh Wetlands on Sunday while I was there.
On Friday, a Ross's Goose was found at Sarnia. With lack of anything else to do, I went up to see it later in the afternoon. It spent most of the day on the Sunset golf course. Not able to get a photo.
I checked out Suncor Nature Way as well. Good place to see Mallard hybrids!
I did get to Rondeau Friday morning but did not find anything of note....again!
Saturday I got to Rondeau again, but did something different by walking out marsh trail. It was still quite frozen, but I was anxious to get out there for a change. Some open water spots were present, especially around Long Pond.
The "birdhouse"! |
Sunday was quite nice, and I went up to Wawanosh wetlands for a walk. I travelled up via the St. Clair Parkway. There were still lots of wintering ducks around Sombra.
Lots of geese flying around, including the white-fronted that flew over.
Local wetlands have opened up, so I will be checking those.
