Birding in Appleton, Ontario

I follow a great number of serious birders. I am not so serious, just lucky.

LUCK = preparation meets opportunity!

Hubby has been seriously into the curling tournament. He's got cheat sheets and matrices of who plays whom, the results, and it is a wonderful time for him to watch a game he has never played!
I took off for a nice, Sunday afternoon drive.
I love watching the Goldeneye dive, except it is bitterly cold. We've had -20 C. temperatures for a couple of weeks.




Love watching them in action!

I think I need to clean my lens!

The reason I went to Appleton is because we had a reporting of Bohemian waxwings there. This would be a good spot for them! No birds about, though! Sweet berries, though.
