I never thought I would see a snake in December in Ontario, sunning itself………but I did today! I also saw a misplaced mountain bluebird, about 2000 miles out of its normal range. Additionally I saw my first snowy owl of the year. It was too far away for a good photo but I watched her (juvenile female) for about 15 minutes with a spotting scope. Add a thousand sandhill cranes, hundreds of tundra swans and a pileated woodpecker and a beautiful sunset to make for a great day!
