This morning I observed at least 1 crane calling from a field south of Florida Road east of Wilton. This seems to be a regular stopover as I find them here spring and fall.
>From Kingston drive north on HWY 38 to the Yarker Road Turnoff (Left)(county Rd. 4). Immediately take the Left on to Henderson. Drive 250m to Florida Rd and turn Left. Drive about 5 Km and look for 4471. Search the large open fields on the south side of the road for 400m either side of 4471 (white house with candy cane driveway marker).Please Drive slowly on this part of the road so you dont hit peoples pets.

Of note, is that the bird appeared to be a sub-adult rather than a juvenile or an adult, as would usually be expected in southern Ontario. Presqu'ile is located south of Brighton (401 exchange 509). The way to the park is well-signed. Don Shanahan Brighton 613 475 3502
