greetings birders banders at the Hilliardton marsh research center were excited to get the stations first ever Leconte sparrow one had been sighted over 25 years ago in a survey done before the marsh was created it came on a day where 10 new species arrived so the migration has just reached us while diversity is good we are not seeing many individual birds yet and expect to have a push soon. If anyone would like more details about our banding stations results they can contact me off list.
The hilliardton marsh is located 20 minutes north east of newliskeard which is approximately 5 hours north of Toronto _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
