The EURASIAN COLLARED-DOVE continues at the Wilson Boathouse Restaurant. This is an easy bird to get. I arrived at 2:00, got out of the car, immediately heard the bird singing, followed the song, then easily saw the bird, which sat as I took a couple of photos.
DIRECTIONS: On the corner of Ontario St and Harbor St in the Village of Wilson, is a large parking lot for the Wilson Boathouse Restaurant and the Wilson Harbor Front (a few shops). You can park in this lot. The bird was singing from atop the large picnic shelter with several picnic tables stacked up under it on the south side of the parking lot. It also sings from the adjacent property to the southwest. According to Google Maps, this is at 57 Harbor Street, coordinates are 43.316830, -78.833611 Good birding!
