Just returned from a pleasant visit in Prince Edward County, south of Belleville, Ontario. Of possible interest to atlassers in that area: on Sunday I observed a family of American Kestrels (4 birds), a female Cooper's Hawk, a group of approx. 30 Cliff Swallows, and two Grasshopper Sparrows along the Babylon Road, not far from Prince Edward Point.
Directions: not far past Black River (on your way to Prince Edward Point), you pass a little lighthouse and Mariner's Museum on the left, then the road bends left around the little bay there. About 5 kms further, you will see Babylon Road on your right. Follow it to where the road bends sharply left (another smaller road keeps going straight, but don't take it unless you want to do some exploring). Babylon Road runs straight from here until it intersects with Whattans Road. The birds mentioned above were observed about 2 kms. before the intersection of Babylon and Whattans.
