Hi everyone. Today, I was counting at Lake Aquitaine from 8:15am - 12:15pm. Beautiful sunny weather! After I came home, it clouded over, turned cold and snowy. :shock:
Total # of species: 14
Total # of birds: 252
Sighted:
Canada Goose
Mallard
Cooper's Hawk (imm.)
Ring-billed Gull
Rock Pigeon
Mourning Dove
Blue Jay
American Crow
Black-capped Chickadee
Red-breasted Nuthatch
American Robin
Northern Mockingbird
Northern Cardinal
House Sparrow
Highlights:
1. Two Northern Mockingbirds! ... the larger one was going in & out of a nest. At another location, discovered a second nest. This is going to be an interesting Spring!
2. Cooper's Hawk (imm.) ... what a beauty! Flew right across the front of my face then landed on the dock. I pointed the hawk out then got into an interesting conversation with a photographer named Lat. We were both admiring the hawk's round, white-tipped tail.
3. My favourite squirrel "White Nose" came running up then tapped on my toes, wanting a shelled peanut. :lol:
