5MR Update/COVID-19 Birding

Well, things certainly have changed in a month!  Fortunately birding can still continue through this pandemic providing that you adhere to proper social distancing!  I have still been doing the occasional bird watching in my 5 mile radius around my house and am now up to 52 species within this circle.  Today I added a 'blue' Snow Goose at a Fergus stormwater pond!  I am enjoying seeing some spring migrants, and my bird feeder is finally getting some use as well!



 Another great surprise for my 5MR was this cute little Screech Owl!  Thanks to Josh P for giving me the tip off!

I also made a trip down to Long Point before the pandemic restrictions really got going and saw the Eurasian Wigeon, although I was not able to get any photos.  I did get some distant photos of a Cackling Goose (central, small bird in photo below).



Other critters are also out and about including this Muskrat.




Stay safe and stay isolated so we can flatten this curve!
