Superb work was done by Mike at ISRW for the past 15 years. He was sorely
missed on the platform at Cranberry Marsh, but he did an excellent job
promoting and manning the more northerly site.

Hello Birders
This post has been approved by the coordinator for Ontbirds.
I would like to take this time to express my thanks to the many who
responded to my post in a very sad but positive manner regarding the ending
of ISRW! It was my hope that it would continue as a valuable source of
informa
Sadly our pending move to Kingsville Ontario must have been an omen as the
platform has been torn down and removed by Hydro! It therefore appears to
be the end after 15 great seasons with close to 100,000 raptors passing
overhead.
Cheers & Good Birding
