LaSalle Marina is a great place to see ducks during the winter months, and if lucky you might see a Northern Pintail Duck; most winters, one or two seem to make an appearance. To me, they are the most elegant of ducks, with beautiful markings. 


About Bob: 
Robert (Bob) Bell is an exploration geologist who had to retire after contracting Lyme disease. After settling in Ancaster, he quickly discovered the therapeutic benefits of birding as a coping mechanism for dealing with his chronic pain and illness. He is the author of “
Out of the Lyme Light and into the Sunlight: Birding as Therapy for the Chronically Ill.” Bob is passionate about sharing his joy of birds and birding, and has given a number of talks on this subject on behalf of BurlingtonGreen. He would be delighted to have you follow his book and birding activity, by sending a friend request to https://www.facebook.com/TheBirderBob/, or by following him on Twitter at @ThebirderBob, BlueSky at @thebirderbob.bsky.social, or Instagram, @thebirderbob.
