Getting the word out that I had a probable Gyrfalcon at Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary north of Kingsville.
It has made two passes hunting the waterfowl here but I haven’t seen it again since. Hoping it makes another pass. I got video w/ my phone and I’ve sent screenshots around for comment and the consensus so far is that it looks good for Gyr. Thanks to those that have commented. Directions: from Division Street North (a few roads north of Kingsville), turn west on Road 3. After a short while you will reach Jack Miner’s. The falcon was hunting waterfowl on the south side in the main field. Kingsville is west of Leamington/Point Pelee. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
