The Razorbill was present at the mouth of the Niagara River this
morning between 9:30 and 10:30. Best seen from the vantage point of
the cannon platform on the west side of the Fort. Probably viewable
from the Ontario side as well but not as close. Diving regularly so

The cackling goose was still at Ft Erie today at 11 AM. It was
feeding on the grass about 200 yards south of
the Peace Bridge with a flock of about 150 Canada Geese.
