For those winter listers that are interested, the Eared Grebe remains in Niagara Falls. The bird has moved from the now nearly frozen over impoundment cell south of the Gate House building right into the open water streams of Dufferin Island.
Directions: From the Horseshoe Falls area continue south on the Niagara Parkway about a half kilometer to the road entrance into Dufferin Island. From the parking area cross over the small cement bridge onto the island, continue 100 yards to the next small bridge (wooden). The bird is associating with numerous Mallards around this second bridge. Good luck.
