Hi Everyone While finishing up my Christmas shopping this afternoon made a brief stop at the Northern Hawk-Owl off Grandview Road and it was still present sitting up in a tree at the end of Grandview Road along Hasting Str. On Huntmar Road near Old Carp Road observed a flock of 40+ White-winged Crossbill and 22 Pine Siskin. On the Old Carp Road there was a flock of 26 Wild turkeys feeding near the corner of Second line Rd.
Merry Christmas, Bruce Directions: Northern Hawk-Owl(Ottawa): From Ottawa take Hwy. 417 west to Moodie Drive exit #134. Go north to Carling Ave. and turn left. Watch for Grandview Road on your right.
