At least They were not around for the mid winter waterfowl count this weekend. So yes going east would be a better choice for the barrows. Or if you are bored you can go to the lower st lawrence in late march/early april and see a few hundred Barrows in a morning.Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14904077746434519541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8130980035846282323.post-58846852797619006572012-01-09T19:02:02.491-05:002012-01-09T19:02:02.491-05:00Thanks everyone.

With the way this winter in going the Brantford birds may not have to contend with cold weather and big snow drifts. And thus will be invisible this year. That site in Kanata is usually an easy tick.<br />Also the Ottawa Barrow's may be needing a visit as well.<br /><br />Good Luck,<br /><br />TylerTylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14904077746434519541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8130980035846282323.post-11343605346413802502012-01-08T21:13:32.590-05:002012-01-08T21:13:32.590-05:00The GGO is quite the attraction down here!
