Title: Humber Bay East
Post by: Rob'in'To on November 09, 2010, 03:27:42 PM

I spent some time at Humber Bay East and here's a bit of what I saw.  I am wondering if someone could confirm the pair in the water photographed to be what I think are two Red Breasted Mergansers or ???

Great Egret

Great Blue Heron

Two pairs of Hooded Mergansers amongst what I think are Gadwalls

Northern Mockingbird (noticed half a dozen approx in my travels)

Red Breasted Mergansers?  They were a ways out from shore...  best I could get of them.
