There were a few people out in moderately heavy rain, but the bird was not seen. (There was a Great Egret, though.)
There is lots of excellent habitat between Bridgestone Dr. and Hope Side Road -- stormwater ponds and channels -- so the area is worth exploring later today. Directions: Hwy. 417 west to Exit 138 (Eagleson/March Road); south on Eagleson about 6 km. Suitable habitat begins at Bridgestone (on your left off Eagleson) and continues to Hope Side Road (also on your left). Best parking is on Bridgestone or Emerald Meadows. Good luck, Michael Olsen _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
