Hi,
Further to Brian Morin's post, I would estimate that 10,000 to 15,000

My final tally for the day was 26,000 over Cornwall. Another 6-7000 were
reported earlier in the morning near Ingleside and because of the timing
they weren't part of these flocks. The two-day total stands at well over
60,000 in the region and we almost certainly missed a few tens of
thousands. No

Dear Eagle Beagles,
No Golden Eagle sighting today, sorry. But today I returned to McKinnon
Road and observed a Turkey Vulture in the same vicinity where I saw the
Juvenile Golden Eagle yesterday under virtually identical circumstances,

While birding Presqu'ile Prov. Park this morning, my wife and I were treated
to a two and and half hour fly past of northbound Canada Geese coming across
Lake Ontario and heading north. We estimate the flocks contained a total of

While enjoying my morning coffee at the Oshawa Second I realized quickly there
will be ALOT more geese in Ontario before dusk. 15 flocks containing 700+
Canada geese came across Lake Ontario in that time. At 9:02 in a flock of 112
geese was a Greater White-fron
This evening, while doing a check of the local lagoons, I had a single adult
Glaucous Gull. Slightly larger than the surrounding Herrings, lighter mantle
and pure white wing tips. It was very obvious, as well, while flying with
the flock of Herrings.
Also there, Common and Hooded mergs.
