The next
few days will feature a potentially long duration rain event caused by a storm
coming out of Canada that will redevelop off the coast and become a slow moving
nor’easter. The rain should be heaviest
on Wednesday and Thursday but occasional showers will occur both tomorrow and
Friday. It will be interesting to see if
any unusual birds get forced down by the extended period of rain and northeast
winds. I made a brief stop at Winsor Dam
this morning before work and had five White winged Scoters sitting on the water
as well as a group of Canada Geese (33) heading south plus a few dozen Black
Ducks and Mallards leaving their evening roost heading south. Wish I could have stayed longer and/or
explored a few other spots but no time today. Another quick stop at the dam on the way home produced two White winged Scoters as well as three Common Loons.
