Yesterday
was another damn cold morning with a temperature around ten but thankfully a
light wind early on. I had a limited
amount of time so I stopped briefly at the Coolidge Bridge and found a decent
selection of gulls and waterfowl including 559 Canada Geese, two Black Ducks, 9
Mallards, four Ringed necked Ducks, three Hooded Mergansers plus just over 200
of the typical three species of gulls plus three Iceland Gulls.
