Dear Ontbirders,
Today, 18 December, Kevin McLaughlin and I birded the Niagara River. Here
are the highlights:
Another adult California Gull on the breakwall at Chippawa below the
control gates. It has more red on the bill than the one at Sir Adam Beck.
California Gull at Sir Adam Beck in the afternoon flying and standing in
its usual spot beside the Robert Moses Dam.
Mew Gull at Sir Adam Beck morning and afternoon, flying then perched on the
rocks on the American side opposite the crane (not a bird) in the small
lookout on the Canadian side.
Three Purple Sandpipers above the Falls.
Black-headed Gull at Queenston, past the waterfall on the American side.
Walk the trail from the upper parking lot at the Queenston boat launch
towards the Queenston bridge.
Happy birding,
Jean Iron
