November 18, 2019 - Westminster Ponds
It was an overcast day, high of 3c. There were a few Canada Geese in the pond plus about 16 Hooded Mergansers. They were in the distance. I also saw a Red-tailed Hawk, Northern Cardinals, Mourning Doves (12), a Red-winged Blackbird and a Ring-billed Gull. My photos are not so great as I'm having camera problems.

It was another overcast day, high of 6c. The Coves were ice covered. I saw a Great Blue Heron in the trees. Below the heron was a little open water going into a stream. That is where I saw the Wood Ducks and Mallards. I walked over to the other Cove and saw some action in bushes along the side. Black-capped Chickadees flew in and along came a Downy Woodpecker. Also two Carolina Wrens were singing.

November 20, 2019 - Hyde Park
Not too much in the water as most of it was frozen but there was a little opening where I saw the Common Goldeneye. There were Mallards and Canada Geese in the water and on the ice. I went to the area where there are a lot of bushes with berries. I saw Dark-eyed Juncos, American Goldfinch, Tree Sparrows, a Song Sparrow and a Robin.

November 23, 2019 - The Coves
It was quiet at first when I was walking along the path. On the way back, I spotted two Northern Flickers, a flock of Dark-eyed Juncos with some American Goldfinch. A Carolina Wren was singing and then saw some Black-capped Chickadees and Downy Woodpeckers.
