A bird identified as a great-tailed Grackle was seen late yesterday afternoon in north St. Catharines. The bird is associating with a number of Common Grackles and the group is moving around the backyards of a residential area. The sighting yesterday was near the corners of Grantham Road and Bessborough Road across the road from Grantham Road Park. If you choose to look for the bird and are successful in refinding it, please telephone one of the following with the details: John Black - 905-684-0143, Alan Smith - 905-937-7891, Kayo Roy-905-892-4433.
Directions: Exit the Niagara bound QEW at Niagara Street in St. Catharines. This exit will fork, you need to take the left fork to the lights at Welland Ave. Turn left, go under the QEW to the second light which is Grantham Avenue. Turn left here and go past the next three lights (Facer St, Carlton St, Scott St)....Grantham Road Park will quickly be on your left. Opposite the north end of the park is Bessborough Road. Start your search here but the bird could be anywhere in a fairly wide area. Good luck. Kayo Kayo Roy 13 Kinsman Court Fonthill, ON.
