A flock of 100-150 Brant was flying up the Ottawa River this morning in a strange zigzag fashion. It looked like they might come down but then decided to keep going. Worth keeping an eye out for them in case they do land. I spotted them around 9:15 just west of the Champlain Bridge. Paul Matthews,

The single bird mentioned yesterday was at the same location this morning, namely on the lawn next to the road that leads to the Remic Rapids parking lot. I'm assuming it's the same bird. However, not far away in the water by the shore was a flock of some 400 Brant, presumably resting and waiting f
