Title: Lambton Woods this week.
Post by: Rob'in'To on November 27, 2010, 12:07:14 PM

Just a few of the sightings this past week being the last full week of November.


I've been seeing the Heron just west of the Scarlet Road bridge at least 3 or 4 times a week.  I finally did the u-turn and went back to the first parking lot, then trekked down to the river and he was still there just relaxing on his turf.

I think this is a Golden Crowned Kinglet.  He was looking right at me for a milisecond before he buzzed off again.  Cloudy at this point.

Everybody gets a nice warm welcoming from the Chickadees providing you got some good grub for them...  those brown things are shelled peanuts from Walmart and seemed to be a last resort.  I have to agree, not very appetizing looking.

And lastly, a lady Cardinal, just because she's beautiful.

Some nice catches there Rob!
I've seen possibly the same Heron on the riverbank just off the parking lot.
Your ID in pic #2 is correct.
As for the 'dees, I shell the peanuts myself and the only complaint I've had is that I'm too slow!
