Excuse my spelling and Grammar, I am Dyslexic thank you.
With the winter listing bug well bitten in to my skin I once again went
out in search of birds today thinking that a good area to look in wood
be the Durham area I was not let down .
First stop Thickson woods found at the end of Thickson rd south of the
401 in the town of Whitby , wear I was a ball to ree find the cat bird
reported today's ago and also watch a N Goshawk hunt the area , between
the too of them I was their for quite some time . other highlights wear
Pileated woodpecker , G.H.Owl and coopers hawk .
Then it was off to Lynde shores and Cranberry Marsh wear right of the
bat I got to look eye to eye with the Sandhill Crane (with out being
attacked like I was last year in B.C)I also saw 3 of my 4 owl speeches
hear G.H.Owl 1, long e owl 2 , Barred Owl 1 , but the best bird was a
Common Yellowthroat warbler giving me my third warbler speech for the
winter Lynde shores is found on Victoria St in Whitby and Cranberry
Marsh is found off Hall's Rd. from Victoria St .
I then drove to Col Sam park hear in Toronto wear the Snow Owl was seen
out on the docks it wood seem that both the Snow Owls I have seen in the
last week have bin females ??
I then did a quick stop in to High Park to look for the Varied Thrush
with no luck I did see the W.E. Vero though but could not refined the
BTGW seen earl in the day .
all and all a great day in the G.T.A

We are fast approaching the end of 2004 and what a year it has been for =
rarities in Ontario. Many birders have already submitted documentation =
to the OBRC, and we thank you very much for taking the time to do so. =
This year just has to be the best year ever for the submission of =
excellent photographs. With the increased interest in digiscoping and =
digital photography, our editors will be hard pressed to choose from =
such a wide selection of very sharp images.
We still do need a number of written reports to go with the photographs =
as they contain other detail that is needed by the records committee. =
This was an interesting year for Pacific Loon observations seen =
throughout the province. While we have received numerous reports, the =
large incursion of this species needs to be fully documented, and I =
would ask that you kindly submit a report if you observed a PALO this =
year. Numerous other Review List birds were seen this year, many by =
more than 100 birders. This includes Black-necked Stilt, Golden-crowned =
Sparrow, Western Grebe, Ross's Goose, Kirtland's Warbler, Rufous =
Hummingbird, to name a few.
The first and last dates of the observance of a Review List bird is of =
critical importance. Should you be aware of the exact dates of any =
birds reported, please e-mail either OBRC Secretary Bill Crins or me =
privately. There are several ways to submit your documentation to the =
OBRC. You can go to the OFO website (www.ofo.ca/obrc/) where you can =
submit your data electronically, or just print out the OBRC Rare Bird =
Report, write-up your report, and mail it to Bill Crins, OBRC Secretary, =
170 Middlefield Road, Peterborough, ON. K9J 8G1.
On behalf of the entire OBRC, we hope that you and your families have =
the best Christmas ever. =20

Spotted a Snowy Owl perched on a post in a field along Earl Armstrong =

It then flew closer to the S curve on Earl Armstrong and landed on a =

took off for the far side of the field near the trees. =20
It was there from 4pm when I spotted it and was still there at about =

A female Eastern Towhee has been coming to a feeder in Carleton Place for
the last few days. It has usually been seen before 9 am and after 4 pm, but
was also seen today around noon. It is at the home of Richard Boughner and
the feeder is in the back yard, not visible from the road.
Richard wants anyone who wants to see the bird to knock at the front door
and he will let them get to the back yard through the garage.
Directions: From Ottawa take Highway 7 west to Carleton Place, turn
right at the traffic light by Canadian Tire onto McNeely Avenue and continue
on McNeely until you cross the Mississippi River and reach the T-junction at
County Road 29. Turn left onto County Road 29 (Town Line East) and then
turn left just before the railroad track onto William Street. Turn left off
William Street just before the railroad track onto Gemill which becomes
Rosamond Street when it bears right. The feeder is at 169 Rosamond Street,
on the right.
