At 9:25 this morning I received a cell phone call from Kayo Roy that the BROWN BOOBY, which had been sitting on rocks just a few feet from the road in Lowbanks, Ontario, had just flown off, heading out into the lake and toward Rock Point Provincial Park (that is, away from Buffalo). The bird was thought to be moribund and the observers there were desperately trying to find a rehabilitator who could help the bird. Perhaps it has a few more hours of life yet.
