In keeping with the recent sightings of northward migrating waterfowl, 2 Northern Pintail (a male and a female) were seen late this afternoon on Staines Pond, visible from Morningside Avenue just south of Staines Road. Thanks to Al Wormington's excellent post for alerting us to the timing and circumstances that surround these mid-winter movements which are, in fact, spring migrations. Mark Kubisz, Scarborough, ON Staines Pond is visible from Morningside Avenue just south of Staines Road, in Scarborough. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
