We must have crossed paths at some point JTF,  I was there all day yesterday as well.  Counted 3 separate Snowies for sure and likely a fourth. Owl woods had some L. Ears, a Golden Crowned Kinglet, but no NSWs. Also spotted a pair of harlequin Ducks along the South Shore.

Still processing my best shots of the snowies but heres a couple ok ones I did right away. Hope you dont mind me including them rather than a separate thread.
