Back in October I saw the lift bridge was reading 20kmh ish NE winds, so I zipped down to Van Wagner's for some mega rarities... I arrived to a lake that was calm as glass... I guess the wind was happening 50 feet up, but ground level had nothing...
Ended up walking around taking pictures of anything I could find, which resulted in this boring photoshoot:
Canada Goose:
Cormorant:
So ya... All of this would have been pretty sad if it weren't for the insanity that ensued in late Oct and early November with Hurricane/Superstorm Sandy...

Speaking of which, I'm actually doing a talk on Sandy to the Hamilton Bird Study Group on Feb 25, 2013
Monday February 25, 2013 : Superstorm Sandy – Brandon Holden
Location:
NEW Location!
Burlington Senior's Centre
2285 New Street, Burlington
Auditorium B
Lots of free parking near the New Central Library.
Come check it out! I hope to talk a fair bit about the weather, instead of just a straight bird talk, so hopefully you'll find it interesting and learn something?? Maybe??
zzzzzzzz.....
