A leisurely Sunday

Well, last Sunday, actually. The previous week had been busy. I took Tuesday and Wednesday off from work, giving me a full week free. On Tuesday, we went to visit my mom in Lakewood. She is doing quite well, actually. We returned late at night, and the next day G's mom and brother drove up from NJ for a visit. We had a good Thanksgiving meal on Thursday, Tim treated us to a nice dinner out on Friday, and I cooked dinner on Saturday. Eat, Eat Eat.

On Sunday, we were back to ourselves, just the two of us. We embarked on some causal birding along the Lake Ontario lake shore. Here is a list of what we saw:

  • Hood Merganser
  • Red-breasted merganser
  • Ring-billed Gull
  • Canada goose
  • Mallard
  • Herring Gull
  • Redhead
  • Common Merganser
  • Scaup (greater or lesser we do not know)
  • Great blue heron
  • Black-capped chickadee
  • Red-breasted woodpecker
  • American crow
  • Greater black-backed gull
  • American robin
  • European starling
  • Red-tailed hawk
  • House finch
  • Mute swan
  • Double-crested cormorant
  • Mourning dove
