Update on SNOWY OWLS and MERLIN



The MERLIN (above) continues to be seen near the intersection of the the Gould Beach Road and Honey Suckle Street at The Bluff (Parlee Beach) in Shediac. He continues to enjoy bathing and on Christmas Eve I captured this image of him wading in a pool of water on the shoulder of the Gould Beach Road.

The immature SNOWY OWL which has been present for several days on the ice off the Point du Chene wharf has been joined by a second immature SNOWY OWL today. Both birds were visible around mid-day today from the end of the wharf and were several hundred meters offshore, one in the direction of Skull Island and the other off to the northeast between Shediac Island and Parlee Beach.
