Hello Ontbirders Today, March 28th, I observed a total of 17 winter plumage Red-throated Loons in Popham Bay, between Beach #1 and Owen Point. Other migrants of note included 4 Tree swallow, 1 Eastern Phoebe, 1 Yellow-bellied Sapsucker and a Common Raven. Presqu'ile Bay still had good numbers of diving ducks including, Canvasback, Redhead, Greater and Lesser Scaup. On March 27th near Almonte I observed 350 Bohemian Waxwings along Dwyer Hill Road near Old Almonte Road.
