Today at 11:00 a.m. I had a male Barrow's Goldeneye off of the east end of Bronte Harbour. The bird was amongst very few Common Goldeneye on the lake in front of the third highrise apartment building east of East Road which is at the east end of the Harbour. A scope was helpful but the bird was within binocular distance. Nice way to beat the winter blues. Unsuccessful attempt this morning to locate the White phased Gyrfalcon. Directions: QEW to Bronte Road, south to Lakeshore Road. Go east of Bronte Road on Lakeshore to East St. There is a 7-11 at the corner. Turn south on East and follow to the lake There is a driveway at the end which leads to the boat yard. You will see the apartment buidlings on your left (east).You can park along the road which borders the harbour itself which is Ontario. This is the location where the Greater White Fronted Geese showed up last January for those familiar with the area. Good birding, Cheryl Edgecombe --- Mark Cranford ONTBIRDS Coordinator Mississauga, Ontario [EMAIL PROTECTED] 905 279 9576 Mark Cranford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
