The weatherman has been consistently wrong for two days now. “Sunny and 61” turned out to be cloudy and 40. Who will rid me of this troublesome Winter?
I started at Quiet Waters, where I found some good birds in poor light, then made a fast trip to Thomas Point, where the strong North wind was cold and uncomfortable.
Some Mergansers and Scoters posed willingly, making for a decent day overall.

I seldom see so many Red Breasted Mergansers.

Some day I’ll get a Belted Kingfisher in perfect light.

It’s getting late for Surf Scoters.
