We cannot
say that we had many cold mornings so far this year. But there has been colder spring. In the Outaouais region, we are very
fortunate by the quantity and variety of waterfowl that we have. This is possibly due to the wide variety of
habitats and to the warmer climate. In
the spring, the newcomers follow one another and use the different spring or
swamp openings to feed and to take shelter.
When you have late springs like in 2007, it is not only deers that
suffer but other animal species. During
that spring, many different species used the opening that was created at the
mouth of our small lake. This particular
morning, a Wood Duck and a Black Duck couple had a rest while awaiting a ray of
sunlight. Good day. Louis
