There are hundreds of Tundra Swans, many Northern Pintails and Am. Wigeons in
North Mississauga. The Swans are yodeling loudly and interacting with each
other. There is a mixture of adults and immatures. It's a joy to see them away

Good morning
Ian Cannell and I birded some of the Long Point areas that the Burrells
mentioned on their yesterday and we saw some birds they may have missed.
At Lee Brown we arrived just minutes after a white morph Snow Goose landed and
after looking at this bird we quickly found the 2
Hi:
We witnessed the most amazing movement of mixed flocks of blackbirds yesterday
afternoon. For three hours in the late afternoon, there was a more or less
continuous stream of Red-wings and Grackles at tree top level moving south
between the viewing platform at Big Creek and the inner bay
Good morning, Just reporting a pair of Peregrine falcons I watched in the
Niagara Falls area, Canada's side, specifically at the fall named horseshoe
fall (the biggest one and more spectacular).The pair was very vocal, and it

On Sunday morning I found approximately 50 bohemian waxwings in Dueham
region on consession Road 7 west of Brock Road and east of Sideline 24 in a
tall tree on north side about 60 yards away.

As one would expect the birds are bellying up to the feeder as this late winter
storm unfolds. Lots of snow and ice up here in the hinterland ... what was more
interesting than the fact that the birds could anticipate the storm long before
it was evident to my eyes, was the behaviour of the
Hi Ontbirders:
On Sunday, there were at least two Hoary Redpolls at the Hilda Road Feeders
(one male and one female). There are other possible candidates in the 80+
Common Redpoll flock. Numbers well exceed 120+ depending on the time of day
you visit. At least one Hoary was still there

Approximately 50 Tundra Swans are spending the evening and nights in the
southern section of the Lynde Shores Marsh, in south Whitby.
The Swans have flown in each evening starting at about 6:00 until 7:30-8:00.
They are staying in the shallow water about 200 yards north from the mouth of

Tonight at around 6:40 pm, I found a Franklin's Gull at Hillman Marsh in
Leamington. It was standing on some mud with a few hundred Ring-billed and
Herring Gulls in the south side of the marsh. It stood out due to its notably
small size and darker mantle, and it had a black head, dark legs, and
14 matches
