Christmas Bird Count 2004
Our area was the same as in previous years, a little woodland but mostly housing estate.We looked for birds in the area bounded by 6th Avenue and 15th Avenue and Marquis Road to 22nd Street, which is the estate that we live in in Prince Albert. It was a very cold with the temperature of -40C, clear and sunny.
I'm sure someone informs the birds because there were birds yesterday and there will be tomorrow but apart from two flocks of Bohemian Waxwings totalling approximately 350 birds, we saw 5 crows, 1 raven, 1 pigeon and 1 blue jay in the space of 1 hour and 30 km around our area of town.
