Hi all, Today, at approximately 1:30 PM, my brother and I were out walking our dogs through Sasparillia Nature Trail when, all-of-a-sudden, an adult NORTHERN GOSHAWK dashed out from a tree-top-perch. The ember-eyed gatekeeper gave us a split-second glare, indicating a sensational adult bird. These birds are truly one of the marvels of nature-viewing, wow.

If southbound, a 0.4 km offramp dumps onto West Hunt Club Road, where you will turn right or southwest. If northbound, the 0.2 km offramp brings you to Cedarview Road, where you will turn right or SSE onto it and in 0.2 km come to West Hunt Club Road. Turn right or southwest onto it and in 0.4 km join the southbound traffic. Both groups will now follow West Hunt Club southwest for an additional 2.1 km to reach Moodie Drive. Turn right or NNW onto it and drive 0.1 km to reach the continuation of West Hunt Club Road. Turn left or southwest onto this part of West Hunt Club and go 0.8 km to Richmond Road.
