Day 9, White-crowned Sparrow
And Day 9 is DONE!
NOTE: Yesterday, 3 February 2019, the temperature just after noon was -27C (windchill -38C!). That is -16.6F (windchill -36.4F). Today, 4 February, has been the third day in a row that has had frigid temperatures. Any routine birding wallks have been cancelled day after day, which very, very rarely happens. A nasty shock after enjoying so many milder winter days for quite some time this winter. Despite the dreadful cold, people are still going out birding on their own (i.e. not the groups). Just amazes me - guess it's a harmless addiction compared to most addictions! For me, it's no big deal if I haven't been able to go out the last three days to look for birds - it really isn't the end of the world, and I have so many things to get on with at home!
This evening, I posted 15 more photos from Day 9, and that brings Day 9 to a close. Tomorrow, I can move on to day 10 of our two-week holiday in Ontario and Quebec in May 2018. I will have only Day 10, 11 and 12 to sort, edit and post.
Day 9, 15 May 2018, involved a local morning walk, not far from our friend Anne's home. Just before 10:00 am, we drove to near the Marine Mammal Interpretation Centre in Tadoussac and followed the Sentier de la Pointe-de-l'Islet Trail. Not the greatest weather, including for photography. However, it was a delightful trail, much of it along a wooden boardwalk (which had quite a few steps). After this outing, we spent some time at our friend's house, watching the birds that came to her garden and then, later on, went for a short, local walk. I really enjoyed photographing these White-crowned Sparrows - they seemed reasonably cooperative.
"Walk along Sentier de la Pointe-de-l'Islet Trail, a forest trail by the ocean with marvellous views of the surrounding coast and skyline. The wooden boardwalk leads you behind the wharf to the mouth of the Saguenay River. The trail provides an easy walk, stretching just under a kilometer (0.6 mi), or you can climb freely over the rocky shoreline for a more adventurous route. The point offers an ideal atmosphere for a picnic by the water. Look out into the distance to catch a glimpse of minke whales, while seals and belugas come close to the shore to feed."
