Hello Birders
Today, March 26 Mary Schuster and I did a little early spring birding from
Cobourg to Whitby. The best bird of the day was an adult Lesser
Black-backed Gull in lovely breeding plumage at Cobourg Harbour. Also in
the group of gulls there on the ice was an adult white-winged gull which
remained asleep the entire time. We were unsure of id, but judging by size
(about the same size as the adjacent Herring Gull) we thought most likely
an Iceland Gull.
Elsewhere we saw most of the same early migrants others have been reporting
in southern Ontario.
Directions:
From the 401 at Cobourg take exit 474 (the second exit when travelling
eastbound) turn left at the stop and drive south to the lake.
