Madness at -19C + wind chill

In a moment of madness, I decided I would go on a birding walk this morning at Inglewood Bird Sanctuary. When I left home around 7:45 a.m., the temperature was -19C and much colder than that with the wind chill. Every branch was covered in frost and mist was rising from the icy waters of the lagoon. The Bow River was mainly frozen over with just the odd patch of open water. Lots of Canada Geese and ducks (mainly Mallards, but some Goldeneye, Bufflehead and Barrow's Goldeneye). We saw two Bald Eagles today, always a treat.
