Saturday looks superb... Light winds and sun... I may just have to go to Beamer for a sweet hawk flight (I hope)...

I also feel like this MAY be a fantastic year to get a Barnacle or Pink-footed Goose in eastern Ontario... I would guess these birds come from Greenland - pretty far north.. SO I've always assumed they'll pass through a bit later in goose migration (Mid-april?) - as the far north is still frozen..
With all the east winds, and all the cold - it may keep geese better concentrated (and further west) than typical in the cornwall-kingston-ottawa area... But hey, maybe there's one already out there and the fantastic weather this weekend will get someone out to find one...
Would be sweet..

Long range:
COLD
Get out this weekend to enjoy some birds... We're still looking below average in the 2-week range:
6-10 day - below average
8-14 day - below average...
I was just thinking today of Pink-footed Goose! (before I read this posting). We can only hope....
