Dear Fellow Birders, Checked out the Beverly Swamp this morning and didnt get to see as much of it as I would have liked as the mosquitos are killer there. But a few good birds were had, the best being a Canada Warbler carrying food. Also in abundance were Northern Waterthrush, Veery, Mourning Warbler, Least Flycatchers, and a family of ~10 Ruffed Grouse. Also went and saw the Peregrine Falcons in downtown Hamilton and they look like the first should be ready to fledge tomorrow morning. Directions: Exit the 403 Hamilton at Hwy 6 north and continue until Flamborough Conc.8 W. and follow this along until it becomes a dirt road. All of the birds were seen along this road. For the Peregrines follow the 403 into Hamilton exit at Main St and follow this east until Bay St turn left and they are at the corner of Bay and King St. Mike Boyd Oakville, Ontario
