American Wigeon at Thomas Point

It’s been a while since my last post. Between a nasty cold and lousy weather, I haven’t gotten out much at all.  I managed a trip to Possum Point and Thomas Point this morning, but conditions weren’t ideal.

Possum Point is still fairly dead, with only a few cormorants. Thomas Point wasn’t much better, with a few flyby birds but none feeding near the point. I did find a few birds at a friend’s house on Thomas Point Road.
