Dear Ont Birders; Little Gulls at Baie du Dore on 5th and 7th February. At least 6 individuals mixed in with 30 or so Bonaparte's. On the 5th a small frenzie of gulls feeding where the river water flowed out from under the ice had 6 gull species Starting with Great-black backed at the top Herring Ringbills and Iceland in between and Bonaparte's and Littles at the bottom. Meanwhile the sky is active with ducks and geese. The Baie is also where Bald Eagles winter and many can be counted in the sky and sitting on rocks. Cheers James
Location; Baie du Dore is easily accessed by turning west on the 6th concession off highway 21 at Underwood. Then continue all the way to the lake. Underwood is between Port Elgin and Kincardine. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
