Prospect wet cold & Bbbbrrrr

I don't mind snow which is the DRY version of precipitation during workdys, but sleety cold rain ?  fuhgettaboouuit ! (tho , I am proudly Winter birder !)

In this miserable weather ( fortunately no driving for me ), just about the best thing to see in Prospect today were the 7 DOUBLE CRESTED CORMORANTS that settled in on the lake. A hen HOODED MERGANSER hung by West Island. The usual are out there , Ruddies and Shovelers....
