Hello Ontbirders, On Saturday, May 1st, Angela and I saw an immature Golden Eagle near Chaffeys Locks (flying over the entrance to the rail trail a few km west of Queens Biological Station on Opinicon Road). Other birds in the area were all as expected (lots of Red-shouldered Hawks, both species of waterthrush, gnatcatchers, Yellow-throated Vireos, etc.).
Today, we saw an Orange-crowned Warbler at Britannia (Mud Lake) in Ottawa. The only other birds of note seen were 2 Northern Parulas. Britannia is along the river, north of the intersection of Carling and Richmond Roads in western Ottawa. Jeff ===== Jeff Skevington, Invertebrate Biodiversity Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada K.W.

It was about a 10 minute walk from the parking lot. Warblers were hard to find, and were in small fast moving flocks. Of note, we found Bluewinged and Hooded Bennett Ave. Also 2 Bluewinged were near the old Pony Barn (north end of Harrison Trail), as well as a White-eyed Vireo. Other things were seen and I'm sure they well appear in the daily report. ================ Blake A. Mann Wallaceburg, Chatham-Kent, ON. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
