I spent much of the morning checking various areas of the Prescott Peninsula for the bird atlas and again had a wonderful time with a variety of good sightings. Beyond the birds listed below I had a Moose (maybe a second), Muskrat, a few Brown Bats (much less than in years past..sad) and a nice mix of butterflies. The birding highlight would have to be a calling male Red Crossbill perched on top of a pine tree. Managed some distant record shots bit nothing worth posting. Here is the list for the morning.
