Fellow Ontbirders,
The White-winged Dove in St. Catharines was seen this afternoon by Joan Taylor, Ian Platt, and myself at 4:15 pm this afternoon (Oct. 13). Thanks to Kayo Roy for his advice on looking for this bird. He says the best time is between 4 and 6 pm when it comes in to feed on the seed placed on the backyard deck at 4 Mississauga Rd. The area can be viewed from the backyard gate at the left side of the house. If you are vertically challenged, you may get a better view if you bring a stepping stool along. Directions from the west: >From the QEW, take the Ontario Street exit in St. Catharines and go north on Ontario Street. Ontario Street becomes Lakeshore Rd. and curves to the right. Turn left at Vine Street. Continue north to the first street on your left, Old Coach Road. Turn left here and go two streets on your right to Mississauga Road. Turn right, the bird visits house #4 on the right. Gord Payne London, ON [EMAIL PROTECTED] ********************************* Dr. R.
