Hello All, I tried for this elusive bird on the morning of Saturday, 25 May and again on the evening of 26 May, but did not find it.
However, there are lots of interesting birds in that area, including: Yellow-throated Vireo – singing male on McKinnon Road about 1.2 km S of Conc. 2 American Bittern – at least four along McKinnon Road about 500 m S of Conc. 2 3 Sora, 1 Virginia Rail, 2 Black Tern, 28 Dunlin, 2 White-rumped Sandpiper, 2 Willow Flycatcher, 1 Bald Eagle, 3 Marsh Wren – same location Common Nighthawk – at least 25 foraging around the intersection of McKinnon Road and Conc. 2 on the evening of 26 May McKinnon Road is about 500 m E of the Brentwood Road intersection with Mill St., just E of Angus in Simcoe County (20 minutes W of Barrie). ********** Burke Korol Barrie, ON _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
