Ingleside - with winter upon us and fewer subjects around our attention often turns to more common species.

Long Sault - this bird is leucistic, having a gene imbalance. This is a permanent condition.

Cornwall - It was a juvenile (yellow eye) and I determined it was a male based on smaller size and shorter tail but clearly a Cooper's and not a Sharpie with that rounded tail.

Morrisburg - A sign of spring. This pair is not local. Mutes are only seen a few times a year on the St. Lawrence. They are regular at locations on Lake Ontario.

Ottawa - This shot begs for a caption. A couple that come to mind are 'sushi on the menu tonight' and 'ice fishing is for the birds'. Overwintering Robins were taking advantage of a small pool of open water with an abundant supply of minnows. They were very good at it but I only saw it happen twice. Others have seen it at this location for a few weeks. Protein is in short supply these days and you'd get tired of frozen fruit too.

Wolfe Island (Kingston) - The uncommon Hoary in comparison with a Common Redpoll on the right. The hoary is paler overall with dull side streaks, unstreaked under the tail and a small bill, giving the face a pushed in look. Thousands of Common Redpolls have descended from the North and are appearing mainly in flocks of 25-100 in rural areas. Weedy fields or roadsides are preferred. When the snow is deep they should appear at feeders. There are a small number of Hoary Redpolls with them.
Redpolls are annoyingly skittish, often remaining only moments for observation. When they are at feeders they are far easier to observe.

Ottawa - This was surprisingly one of the most common warblers that day, next to Yellows and Yelow-rumps. One tree had a dozen or more. These and other northern warblers have been around since the end of July and in better than expected numbers. We have been theorizing that there may have been an early departure thanks to forest fires in some areas.
