In the countryside.


We went to Inglis that is just west of the west border of Riding Mountain National Park. On the way we saw few birds just an occasional raven and one solitary magpie (photo). There were no flocks of snow buntings. Perhaps they are already on their way back north! There is no sign of winter leaving though.
At the bird feeder there were all of three house sparrows at one time the other day but mostly there are a few red-breasted nuthatches and black-capped chickadees.
