A think film of ice on the water with no birds swimming in it.
My mother saw this dead vole. Guess the weather was too cold for this poor fellow to handle.
Terra Nova has changed a lot with the additional of new trails. Not sure if it's better (or worse) for the wildlife, that is. We saw two Brown Creepers hopping from tree to tree along the trail looking for insects.
Through the woods
We saw many starlings and robins in the woods. This American Robin was nice enough to pose a photo with the red berries to make a festive (but green) photo.

Walking back to the car, we saw these four geese in front of us. At first I thought they were Canada Geese, but when we got closer I realized they looked different. I snapped these photos for identification later.
Once I compare the photos with my field guide, I believe they are Greater White-fronted Geese (Anser albifrons). The distinguishing feature is the whiteness at the base of the bill. Please let me know if I am wrong. Thanks.
