    London Ontario Canada...

    LOL! I guess I am hoping for a unique sighting... female and immature birds often leave me stumped... this one was perched for some time and was probably waiting for me to leave so it could drop an egg into a nearby nest ;)

    London Ontario Canada...

    I will likely have my head in the sand afterwards... this was in a marshy area but doesn't look like a female red winged and wondered if it is a bunting... please don't tell me it's a cowbird :egghead:

    I.D Waterfowl migration London Ontario Canada

    I managed to get a few photos of a sighting in a small pond today, Sept 18/16. Is this a Merganser? female or juvenile? it was swimming with mallards and similar in size but not as plump.

    Heron/Bittern ~ North America, Canada, Ontario, London ~ Sighted July 30, 2016

    Thanks KC... I think I was fixated on markings and trying to find it in my small viewfinder yesterday. This evening it's wingspan seemed disproportionately longer for the stout body at least 20" across. ��
