The Eurasian Collared-Dove that Jim and Keith Burk found in Rondeau Park earlier was still present when I left about 20 minutes ago. It had just flown out of sight but from what I hear it has done that a few times already today, always returning to approximately the same spot.
It's been hanging out on hydro lines and in trees between the dog beach and house number 17108 Lakeshore Rd, slightly south of the Visitor Centre in Rondeau Park near Blenheim, Kent County. A big thank you to Jim and Keith, and Steve too of course, for getting me on it so quickly... Seeya in Toronto! Jeremy Bensette - Leamington, ON I'm doing an Ontario Big Year in 2017!
