In York Region north of Toronto, the Seneca College campus in King City was productive again this morning. The warbler species count climbed to 11 today with BLACKBURNIAN, CHESTNUT-SIDED, YELLOW, and PALM being added to the weekend list. Compared to hot spots along the Great Lakes' shorelines (where warbler counts are steadily climbing to 20 species and beyond) this number pales, of course, but relative to our location it was another good day for finding spring migrants. BLACK & WHITE WARBLER was the most widespread species with 12 individuals being counted between Allan Roitner and I. Apart from the warblers, other "newish" arrivals for York region today included HOUSE WREN, WARBLING VIREO, LEAST FLYCATCHER, SWAINSON'S THRUSH, and WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW. Ron Fleming, Newmarket Regarding the Seneca College campus in King City, this beautiful 700-acre property once belonged to the well-known Eaton family of department store fame. Their Norman-style French chateau still sits prominently on the north side of the lake there and now functions as a conference and banquet centre. The Oak Ridges Trail runs though the north part of this property and offers excellent hiking and birding opportunities. The lake - sometimes referred to as Seneca Lake but actually named "Jonda Lake" by Lady Eaton after her son, John David - has Osprey platforms that are used for nesting each year. York Region is between Barrie and Toronto. Seneca College's King Campus is north of King Road, accessed by driving north on Dufferin Street, then turning into the property westward. There is a parking fee of $4 if you choose to drive right into the campus. As an alternative, you can drive a km north and look for the hiker's stile on the west side of the road.
