A brief stop this afternoon at the Wet Woods at the base of Tommy Thompson Park. The name is apt after the recent down pours. You will need your boots at the moment. It was fairly quiet, other than Red-wing Blackbirds:
Fox Sparrow (several) on the Unwin side of the Woods; Coopers Hawk (may be partially responsible for the low number of birds) Northern Flicker Brown creeper Tree Swallows Golden-crowned Kinglet American Goldfinch American Woodcock other usuals Tommy Thompson Park is at the base of Leslie Street and the Wet Woods can be accessed from the walking paths off Unwin during the weekdays (from the Parking Lot on Weekends) _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
