Another saunter up to Conestoga Lake, to have a look at what might be around. On my way, while driving through Yatton, just north of Wallenstein I noticed this guy.
Pretty nice lookin' fella. Obviously captively reared but interesting nonetheless. I've had 3 in Wellington County in the past 2 weeks. Pretty weird. Not much else to report. Had a female Belted Kingfisher in Glen Allan. Other interesting birds include:
Northern Shrike - 1
Common Goldeneye - 1
Red-bellied Woodpecker - 1
The lake is still partially open which is pretty crazy. A good number of ducks and geese are present, and will likely remain so until it completely freezes. There's likely a few other waterfowl species around, particularly on the river between the dam and Glen Allan, likely a Gadwall/Wigeon, and maybe a Bufflehead or Hoodie.
The Linwood CBC is coming up (January 2nd), we have ALOT of people this year, which is both good and bad (in some ways). I'm eagerly awaiting what interesting bird is turned up because of it!
