Twelve DNCBers met at 7am on Boundary Bay Dyke at 104th. Street – Roger, Dottie, Bob, Jacquie, Deems, John, Margaret, Jonathan, Lorraine, Bryan, Lorna and Terry.

DNCB Outing No. 2022-02B to Centennial Beach, Boundary Bay Regional Park, January 12, 2022
With a weather forecast predicting heavy, continuous rain, and an atmospheric river descending on the delta, the few Casual Birders who had signed up for today’s walk all bailed out, except for me.

We headed there, and the bird swooped closer revealing itself as a Peregrine Falcon. The group collected below this bird and got excellent looks with the Kowa scope before it…

Nine of us gathered at Centennial Beach on a grey and breezy morning and headed for the little pond just south of the playground. This small, sheltered area was quite productive, with a Common Goldeneye, a couple of Buffleheads, and the usual Mallards. Blackbirds, both Brewer’s and Red-winged were flying around, and one poor little…
