Can you imagine a more beautiful place in which to do your Christmas Bird Count? This is the Bow River, flowing through Canmore, near Banff, in the Rocky Mountains. The valley was in shadow, but the sun caught the distant peak of Cascade Mountain, Banff. Nine of us walked for seven hours on Saturday (19th December), but the birding was pretty slow. I'm SO glad it wasn't -30C like it was for this Count last year! Such a relief : )
