Title: Lake Aquitaine - Wed. Feb. 8th
Post by: Bird Brain on February 08, 2012, 12:25:56 PM
Hi everyone.  I was walking around Lake Aquitaine this morning from 9:30-11:30am and sighted the following:

Blue Jays x 2
Canada Geese - 200+
Cardinals x 10 (5m, 5f) including one male singing up a storm!  
Chickadees x 4
Crows x 2
Gulls - lots, mainly Ring-billed
House Sparrows - dozens
Juncos x 4
Mallards - 120+
Red-breasted Nuthatches x 2

Bumped into Bob (rcflier) and his wife Lesley so the yak was on!   8)

Got into a conversation with a man and two women - they had just sighted a Mockingbird at East end of lake.  Murphy's Law, I haven't seen this awesome bird since December!
