Title: Lake Aquitaine and my favourite guy! - Sat. Jan. 15th
Post by: Bird Brain on January 15, 2011, 12:15:02 PM
Wow, it's quite the "Winter Wonderland" out there today!  

Hi everyone.  This morning I was walking around Lake Aquitaine between 10-11am.

Walked out the back gate of my building, heard a high pitch squeak and this brought a smile to my face as I knew right away that my favourite guy "Woody" (male Wood Duck) was nearby!  :D

Amazingly, discovered some open water here at NW corner of lake.  "Woody" was there along with:

Black Duck (male) x 1
Mallards x 80+

At SW corner of lake:

Chickadees - lots
House Sparrows - a few
Juncos - lots

Lake Aquitaine:  SE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Aquitaine Ave., behind the Meadowvale Community Centre.
