Today (Sunday, 20 April) two SANDHILL CRANES were circling over Arrowhead Provincial Park around 10 a.m. This species is not commonly seen in Muskoka and is the first record of this species in the park in several years. Arrowhead PP is about 10 km north of Huntsville on Hwy. 11. The entrance is well signed from the highway. The cranes were over the main park road, about 1 km north of the Big East River.
Also, a vocal pair of MERLINS was seen at the junction of Hwy. 60 and Muskoka Road 3 over the Shopper's Drugmart parking lot around 9 a.m. This location is near the northeast corner of Huntsville. From Hwy. 11, turn east on Hwy. 60 (towards Algonquin PP/Ottawa) until you come to the first set of traffic lights, which is about 4 km. ********** Burke Korol Huntsville, ON [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Burke Korol" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Visit http://www.ofo.ca/ontbirdsguide.htm for information on leaving and joining the list.
