A Pleasant Day

Large Rectangle
Gibbons Park, London, Ontario

sunny, 6c


I went out for a walk early this afternoon.  With the ice and rain we had this past weekend the river is high.  The path in Gibbons close to the river was covered with water.  


I saw a Great-Horned Owl, Downy Woodpecker, Red-bellied Woodpecker, American Goldfinch, Mallard, Canada Geese, Red-winged Blackbird, American Robin, Common Crow, Song Sparrow and Cardinal.


Looking at the trees, they are ready to burst any time.  It was a nice pleasant day for a change.




The owlets have left the nest.  There are a bunch of very high trees which the owlets are in somewhere.  There were other birders in the area and they found one owlet but I could not get my eye on it.  About 4 trees over, the Mom was sleeping.  The other birders found it earlier in the day and it was very nice that a couple of birders helped me find the Mom.  About 7 birders were there. 


Her eyes are closed.




I saw this American Goldfinch singing away.
