[Ontbirds]Humber Bay Park Birds

   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!!
