WHITE SQUIRRELS IN EXETER
I haven't visited these guys in quite a while so I decided to drive up there
while my walking is limited. You can find them while driving around the
subdivisions.

RED-BREASTED MERGANSER
Pretty common along the shores of the Great Lakes and the St Clair River/
Lake St Clair/ Detroit River in the winter, as long as there is some open
water.

FEMALE WHITE-WINGED SCOTER AT BURLINGTON LIFT BRIDGE
I just spent another 5 hours at Urgent Care regarding my leg pain. Second
set of x-rays is still inconclusive but senior radiologist was not in today.
I should get his report early tomorrow. Hopefully I will not need a splint
or a boot.
I also have an infection in there which means 2 kinds of antibiotic.
All this after a very minor tumble. I was able to walk normally on it for an
hour before major pain and swelling occurred.

ALL THREE SCOTERS IN ONE DAY
The black scoter and surf scoter are lifers. The juveniles are somewhat
difficult to identify. I am still searching for adult males (with coloured
beaks) of these 2 birds.
All scoters are uncommon on inland waters. They prefer wintering on open
salt water. I see the white-winged scoter frequently in west Toronto,
Burlington and Hamilton.

MOUNTAIN BLUEBIRD
This bird is another one that is way off track. It should be on the west
coast, like the Townsend's warbler which I sent out recently.
We found her just northeast of Waterloo, where she has been reported for
about 2 weeks.
She has been gorging herself on caterpillars and will likely stay around
until the weather changes and the food supply disappears.

BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE AND FOX SPARROW
I found this fox sparrow at Rondeau. It was a bit more co-operative but we
still only had a very short visit.
