This afternoon, Sat. April 25, 2009, Bill Crins found a male BARROW'S GOLDENEYE at the Lakefield Sewage Ponds in Lakefield.
The bird was swimming in the first pond (the one nearest the road) with Common Goldeneye, Bufflehead, Ring-necked Ducks and Lesser Scaup. The village of Lakefield is located N of Peterborough. To reach the Lakefield Sewage Ponds take Hwy 28 N of Peterborough to County Rd 33 and turn left. Drive approx. 1km - the driveway leading to the sewage ponds is on the left (S side). Park at the side so not to block the gateway. Sorry for the cross-posting. Cheers, Colin Jones Lakefield, ON _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
