 More Winter Things!

I have been enjoying short walks along the Lake Huron Shoreline. Watching the rolling waves and "flying ice" is mesmerizing! 

Yesterday, a Bald Eagle flew directly overhead on its way to hunt for ducks. He skimmed about a foot above the water and ice surface in his quest for food but didn't have success before disappearing from my view.

Ducks are distant in Lake Huron, but the relatively open waters along the Suncor Trail have attracted a number of Mallards, including a lone male Wood Duck! (centre of photo)

Several American Goldfinches found a seed source on a Mullein stalk in Canatara Park. The 6th Goldfinch appears to be applying the brakes as he scans for a clear landing spot..

Four of a dozen Northern Cardinals enjoyed the sunshine on a cold day!
