Humber Bay Park West
7:00 - 10:00 AM
Along the Southeast point of the park I watched 2 Horned Grebes rest and
feed amongst a large raft of Greater Scaup. Just around the corner from the
Southeast point a single White-Winged Scoter was also feeding. Afterwards I
moved along to the parking near the lighthouse and marina on the Southwest side
of the park. At the trash can a very brave Northern Mockingbird was feeding in
the garbage. As I walked along the West Side of the point there were 6-7
American Coots feeding amongst some Scaup and further up, nearly 10 or so
White-winged Scoter's were mingling with some Long-tailed Ducks. It was a
great morning for birding, as there were plenty of the regular overwintering
ducks present throughout the park.
Bird On!!
