Hi Ontbirders,
My Mom and I birded Britannia Conservation Area this afternoon. There
were numerous American Robins, Red-winged Blackbirds and Common Grackles
near the parking area. We had a flock of 31 Bohemian Waxwings fly over
us near the Filtration Plant. There was a singing Northern Shrike on
the ridge. There was a Great Blue Heron on Mud Lake near Britannia
Road. There was an adult Coopers Hawk being mobbed by American Crows in
the tall pine trees. I was unable to locate any Great Horned Owls.
In the front yard of a house on Britannia Road, there was a large flock
of Cedar Waxwings with a single Bohemian Waxwing eating crabapples.
Good Birding!
Brendan Toews
