There is alot to talk about in the Hamilton Study Area now that winter
listing season is here.  Let's get to our rarities first though.  Last
weekend and again yesterday and today a PACIFIC LOON was seen well from
Beachway Park in Burlington.  This particular individual seen yesterday was
a juvenile but there is a possibility that another bird may be present at
this end of the lake.  The NORTHERN GANNET was last seen on Monday in
Hamilton Harbour invited to a feeding frenzy there.  Today a BLACK-LEGGED
KITTIWAKE was seen on the water with some gulls in front of Hutches
Restaurant at VanWagners Beach around 2:30 today.  The WHITE-EYED VIREO seen
for some days this week, made its exit with the RED-EYED VIREO, both were
last seen on Wednesday at Shoreacres/Paletta Park in Burlington.  Although
not yet a separate species, a nice surprise for this birder was the
discovery of an AUDUBON'S YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER, seen around the sewage
tanks with a group of Myrtle Yellow-rumped Warblers at our favourite winter
warbler spot Sedgewick Park in Oakville.  Comments welcome privately on this
bird, most I have received deem it a pure Audubons but on the fence about
being a hatch year male or female.  

Now that its December winter listing has started for some and there are some
choice birds for the taking for winter listers here.  Besides the birds
mentioned above, RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, NASHVILLE AND PALM WARBLER are all
present at Sedgewick Park in Oakville.  A BLUE-HEADED VIREO was reported
last Tuesday and could resurface once temperatures drop mid-week.  Another
great winter bird is a BALTIMORE ORIOLE seen along the waterfront trail
accessed at Bayfront Park.  The bird has been hanging around the 1600 m
mark.  Other notable winter birds include a male Wood Duck at LaSalle Park
in Burlington, a juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron seen yesterday along the
creek at Shoreacres/Paletta Park, a Winter Wren was singing at Shoreacres
today, Hermit Thrush, one in Sedgewick Park and three in Hyde Tract in
Flamborough and a group of three American Pipits seen in McMaster Forest
today.   

In the odds and sods, geese are in the news.  A selection of goose species
has been seen at the Hagersville Quarry Ponds with Ross's, Snow, Cackling
and a Hybrid (Cackling x White-front) present there mid week.  Two
Blue-morph Snow Geese were seen at the pond just east of  William Dam Seeds
on old Highway 8 west of Greensville.  Other Snow Geese were seen near Hwy
#8 and Glover rd in Stoney Creek and on Shellard rd just south of old
Beverly rd.  A female King Eider was seen at the end of Green Road
yesterday. In addition to the PACIFIC LOON, Red-throated and Common Loons
still seem to be around.  Snowy Owls are still very much in the news with
birds seen on the QEW at Casablanca, two seen at QEW and 50 Road, one seen
at Burlington St, one on the berm at Tollgate Pond today, two at Canada
Centre for Inland Waters on Thursday and one at the end of the Burlington
Pier. Although most have moved through, a single Pine Siskin has been
hanging with the American Goldfinches at Shoreacres/Paletta in Burlington.

We are doing a Hamilton Winter Bird List for this season here in the Hammer.
Kindly email in your sightings here so we can put them on the list to see
how our winter fares.

Happy Winter Listing,
Cheryl Edgecombe

[Ontbirds] Fwd: Probable Gyrfalcon et al. in Barrie

2017-12-02 Thread Burke Korol via ONTBIRDS 
to continue my post...

A few COMMON LOONS remain on Kempenfelt Bay along with hundreds of
RED-NECKED GREBES, but I could not locate the long-staying PACIFIC LOON.

The waterfront is in the City of Barrie, which is about an hour north of
Toronto. There are birds at all of the usual vantage points around the west
and south sides of Kempenfelt Bay of Lake Simcoe: Centennial Park, Heritage
Park, City Marina, Tiffin St. boat launch, Minet's Point Park, South Shore
Park (Barrie Canoe and Kayak Club) and Dock Road pier.

I'll try to look for the potential Gyr again tomorrow and will report back
once photos have been more closely studied.

Subject: Probable Gyrfalcon et al. in Barrie
To: birdalert@ontbirds.ca


I spent a few hours birding the waterfront in Barrie today and here are the
highlights.

Around 2:20 pm, a large falcon was seen chasing Ring-billed and Herring
Gulls on the Centennial Park waterfront and it perched briefly at the City
of Barrie Marina. I took some record shots, but later, another birder got
some better shots of this bird as it stooped on a flying drone. The heavy
body, large size, grayish upperparts and relatively broad wings suggest
this was Gyrfalcon, rather than a (resident) Peregrine Falcon. The better
photos cannot be studied until later tonight, but initial indications are
that the photographed bird lacked the stronger 'sideburns' of a Peregrine.
A short time later, we relocated the bird among the high-rises near the
waterfront and got some better photos. The bird vocalized half a dozen
times and the call was lower pitched and raspier than a typical Peregrine
call.

Still later, good shots of a juvenile Peregrine Falcon were taken in the
same area, so we suspect both species were present.

Other highlights included a SNOWY OWL (on private property) and two adult
BALD EAGLES at Minet't Point Park.

A few COMMON LOONS

Winter listers:

The Baltimore Oriole located two weeks ago is still here just past 1600 m on 
the trail.

Access to the trail is at Bayfront Park at Bay Street north in Hamilton. People 
may remember this trail from several years ago when the Black-throated gray was 
here.
