A Bit Of Sun At The Vermilon River. A Post to MWT and WBW.

This hike took place over Friday, an extremely cold day and Saturday which was sunny and warm. The sky is from Friday, and again the adage played true as the day was plain miserable, that damp cold which is so unlike here. REMEMBER TO CLICK ON ANY PHOTO TO ENLARGE AND WATCH THE SLIDE SHOW.

Saturday was warm and prompted me to visit the East Track wetlands, another abandoned track, although a portion is still used for shunting purposes.

This is the East Track wetland on the north side of the track. The wetland is still frozen, and the water level is very low.

Another view of the wetland. The track is another favourite trail of mine.

The weather is bouncing around as today it is snowing so the migration appears stalled. I'll just use captions for the next photos.

Close Up Canada Geese.

This guy is so crabby that you may see the first Geese divorce in history. 

This pair is getting along alright.

I'm still getting Pine Sisken visiting the feeders.

For some reason I usually have trouble getting photos of Mallards, but not this year.
