Looks like another sunny day on it's way. Not what you would call typical Christmas weather but great for people who have had family and friends travelling to visit. I think we could find a beach to visit in the other direction today, maybe Hemeon's Head or Johnson's Pond. Been a while since we've traveled to either spot. Haven't seen the Harlequin Ducks this year so that would be a great sighting and better photos would be a bonus. Sometimes it's just best to go without a lot of plans in place. Larry will probably want to put some more wood in so maybe we'll go early and come home early today. Stores are open again today - "Boxing Day Sales", think I'll stay far away!
Boxing day was nice. I took a jaunt around the hood, Larry put some wood in the basement (time to start replacing what we've used) and then we headed off to Cape Sable Island for a little birding. Found a couple of our birding friends and a few American Pipits. The Sanderlings they had found were leaving just as we arrived. Was a fabulous day for waves and spray on the beach. There is never a bad time to visit the beaches in Shelburne County. Saw the Snowy Owl at Daniel's Head and a few domestic Geese and Mallards as well. Gulls of course were abundant.
Soft sunrise over the lake when Lexi and I were out.
The ducks were all at Myrna's yesterday morning, by afternoon a few had made their way to Lois'.
Great waves and spray!

More waves.

Not sure if it was bath time or they were feeding.

Enjoy your day!
