Today at about noon I observed a Shrike in the old orchard area at the extreme
east end of Courtneypark Rd, on the western edge of Pearson International
Airport. It was at a distance of approximately 10 metres, I was in a moving
car, and I had no binoculars with me for a better identification, but the black
facial mask did not seem especially pronounced. It began to move as my car
slowed, but continued to flit around the trees and bushes in the area.
Directions: Highway 401 to Dixie Rd., north to Courtneypark (4th lights), right
(east) approximately 1.5 km. It was seen on the north side of the road just
east of the bridge over the creek.

There was a Long Eared Owl today in the clump of cedars off the birding
trail on the west side of the Lynde Shores Wood Lot. (same cedars where the
Saw Whet Owl is sometimes found.) A picture was sent to OFO and is available
if anyone wants to send me an email.
Lynde Shores CA is just west of Whitby off Victoria Street. Take Brock
Street exit off 401, go south to Victoria and turn right. Lynde Shrores CA
will be on your left just past Cranberry Marsh.
