Short-tailed Weasel Activity This is a short video of the movements of a Short-tailed Weasel at night. They appear to have a very high energy level – always bouncing around and looking for prey.

Deana and I travelled to Moncton yesterday (car appointment and sanitizing supplies for the ski club were our justifications!).

We stopped at a couple of places to check on birds. Well in Cocagne, near the bridge, we saw a Song Sparrow. Poor thing was

finding something to eat on a small patch of bare grass, perhaps the grass itself. We left some sunflower seeds for it, her is hoping it found them.

The male cardinal was here with the blue jays also, but by the time I got to the camera they took off.

Here is the redpoll, been here for three days now, best photo I can get through the snow and a glass door.

A small flock of Common Redpolls seem to be hanging about Strawberry Marsh this week. So too is a Northern Shrike, apparently.

This morning Deana and I took a drive to the beach at the end of Cedriere Rd. which is in Northumberland County but getting close to Tracadie. The beach itself was bare and ice free and very “walkable” although we didn’t walk far. This stretch of beach is beyond Miramichi Bay and the barrier islands, directly on the Gulf of St. Lawrence, so is often partly or completely ice free. There was no ice to be seen today. We were interested in what sea ducks we might encounter. The list includes about 40 Long-tailed Ducks, 4 Common Eider, about 20 Common Goldeneye and one Barrow’s Goldeneye. There were two Herring Gulls as well. We had a flyby of six Iceland Gulls, perhaps checking on whether we had any food offerings. We didn’t. I was not cold nor windy, really quite pleasant.
