A Pine Grosbeak. Guess where
this is. Yup - Opeongo Road!
A red squirrel taking
advantage of spilled bird feed.
A quick visit to the Spruce
Bog yielded this Brown Creeper. This is a tiny bird that
spend its time gleaning food in the form of tiny insects found in the
cracks of tree bark.
Then I went for a hike on the
Two Rivers trail.
I came across this scene exhibiting
multiple signs of Snowshoe Hare. We can see where it has
eaten the bark of the fallen branches, and left behind an
orange pee stain along with some scat pellets.
The highlight of this trail is
the viewpoint overlooking the Madawaska River valley.
Along here I encountered a
large flock of energetic Pine Siskins.
Then to finish off the day, a
trip to Peck Lake.
This is a mink hole and tracks along
the edge of the lake.
