8 March/17

Been cold and very windy the past day and a half. Winds sustained at 55 kph, up to 75 kph. Temp at about -15C. I don't know where the Canada geese have gone. This site where I saw 4 is frozen over, and there are none to be seen. Apparently, they have arrived here about a week before normal. They were seen at Oak Hammock Marsh on 21 Feb/17. The normal time is 28 Feb. Again, don't know where those ones have gone, as any open water would be frozen again. Lot's of grain areas around there, so perhaps they are feeding there, but I don't know where they retire at night.

There are no birds out and about the past couple of days. A few squirrels, both red and grey.
