Hello All,
This afternoon at 2:20 PM my wife and I observed a Rough-legged Hawk in west
St. Catharines. From St. Paul Street West (Regional Road 81), we observed
the hawk sitting in a tree (between Vansickle Road and First Street Louth).
It flew to another tree and we observed it from First Street Louth, slightly
north of St. Paul Street West. It then flew north and landed in a tree near
the railway tracks, north of 5th Avenue Louth.
While we were on 5th Avenue we observed 6 Horned Larks at the side of the
road.

From downtown St. Catharines travel west on St. Paul Street West. First
Street Louth is 1.5 km west of downtown St. Catharines. To reach 5th
Avenue, turn right onto First Street. 5th Avenue Louth is the first left.
