The rise in T is probably to blame for the Sparrows making very infrequent visits to feed along the NORTH pathway at Cranberry west. The GOLDEN-CROWNED SP. made its day 34 appearance shortly after sun-up on Thursday, Dec.9. I do not know whether he was seen during the day. A White-throated Sp. came out very periodically. A Barred Owl and Great Horned Owl were noted in the area. The only other bird of note would be a Golden-crowned Kinglet.
Over the past few days a male Ring-necked Pheasant has been seen strutting across Hall's Rd. toward the north end. >From the west exit 401 at Salem Rd.(AJAX), south to Bayly, east through LakeRidge Rd., to the first street (Hall's Rd.), south to the FIRST roadside parking area.From the east exit 401 at Brock St. (WHITBY), south to Victoria St,., west through to Hall's Rd.
