More From Our PEI Outing

These are a few more shots from my day out with Trevor and Dan. We saw a lot of birds that day, ....and more to come.

Dan is investigating what type of gull this is. Juvenile Iceland, Glaucous, Hybrid or perhaps Albino Herring.

Very nice captures Shirley.

Nice pics, Shirley.

Your "sharp shinned" is a female merlin, incidentally.

I think the gull is an Iceland - the beak looks a little bit smaller and the face a bit more "gentle" than glaucous (tough angle though).

Nice pics.

Hi Keith. Thanks for the ids. Dan (snowyowl13) has some better shots of the gulls we saw and is getting a variety of opinions on what they are.

Shirley, did you notice that your roughie has a mouse/vole in its talons !Nice capture!

Yes, I did notice that. I thought at first it was fish.

Nice shots of the birds Shirley. Glad you guys had a wonderful birding day.

Nice series Shirley. That's quite a variety of birds for just a ride in the country.

Thanks Fee and Mitch. We did have a great day.

Nice shots, my favorite is the one of the Female Merlin.
I have only seen a male, and that was only as it was flying through my bird feeding station. Mostly a flash of light Gray ( on its back) as it was flying through.
