The lake off Bronte Harbour produced a 2nd winter Glaucous Gull harrassing the many hundreds of Double-crested Cormorants and a pair of Common Terns. Nearby at Bronte Marsh was a Green Heron, a pair of Shovelers and a Blue-wing. Teal. Good Birding. Directions; Bronte is situated in south-west Oakville, accessed easily by the QEW or Lakeshore Rd.
