It's Canada, no Thanksgiving Day feast to worry about up here!
I know, it's been a while since I posted. The weather at the BirdMobile hasn't been conducive to getting an internet connection. Friday night we had tornado warnings and today is a real windy day at Magee Marsh. I had a table set up for a short time, but the tent started to blow away with the Doodles still hanging on. So, for today, I'm giving up and sitting in the car posting at last.
You're probably wondering why this first post from BWIAB is about Canada...or not. We took a boat trip across Lake Erie to Point Pelee Park in Ottawa to catch a few warblers or anything else with wings... The weather was good that day, no sea sickness! The birding was a little quiet, a good number of species, but single birds. Well, here's a few photos before my battery goes dead!
Enjoy!

It's a Red-headed "Weedpicker!"
That's what happens to woodpeckers that are afraid of heights...
the males is very closed...very, very closed. Smart bird, eh?
I helped push a van(Matt Mendenhall's of Birders World Mag) out of the mud here at our vendor area and managed to get myself covered in mud. All in all an exciting day so far! When I recharge the batteries, download more birdy butts and get organized, I post more details!
