Burke called again to say he just had better looks and it's a probable Thick-billed Murre. It's actively diving.

He's at the public boat launch at corner of Main and Bonnechere. Cobden is on Highway 17, east of Ottawa about 30 minutes from Pembroke. He thinks it's a murre, maybe Common, definitely an alcid. He's hoping someone can get there to check it oout. Scope needed.
