Winsegansett for SEANET
Calm, 40s. When I started it had just stopped drizzling and there was 100% cloud cover and fog coming off the ice.
By the time I finished it was sunny and almost cloudless.
41 Brant, 23 Herring Gulls, 2 Black Ducks, 27 Common Eider, 1 Common Loon, 2 Red-breasted Merganser, 6 Dunlin, 1 Killdeer, 12 Horned Larks, 1 American Pipit, 2 House Finch, 2 Song Sparrows, 6 Mallards, 3 Yellow-rumped Warblers.
As I rushed to get back before the incoming tide made the inlets too deep, ran into a Snowy Owl. It stayed a long time before buzzing me on its way to the marsh.
Fantastic!
