Newfoundland for the holiday season

Anyone going to Newfoundland for the holidays? Maybe Bonavista?


How about now?


Terrible winter weather is hitting the UK, and now a killer Nor'easter is going to tear into newfoundland for the next few days. Birds just have to fly 1/4 of the way over the ocean before getting sucked into the powerful winds.

Will it bring anything? Well you never know with these storms. Sometimes they're a total dud, but the opposite is also true - crazy birding events don't often occur without crazy weather!

Word from Bruce Mactavish is that he is on high alert for Eurasian Coot. I sure do enjoy birding in Ontario, but theres a small part of me that would have a LOT of fun searching around Newfoundland for the next 10 days.....

Keep an eye on that surfbirds rarity gallery!
