On Saturday, December 11th, approximately 11:30 a.m., a Golden Eagle and a Turkey Vulture were seen flying south of the Visitor's Centre at Point Pelee. The large flock of Robins and Cedar Waxwings near Blue Heron picnic area were scanned by several birders over the course of the morning but no sighting of either the Varied Thrush or the Bohemian Waxwing.

It's very approachable and let me get some great photos today! Be sure to view the bird only from the road - all the surrounding lands are private. In case you're interested, I posted one of the photos from this morning here: http://www.ethanmeleg.com/hawkowl.htm Directions: Take Highway 6 north up the Bruce Peninsula. Turn right (east) on Dyers Bay Road and go 2.1km to the junction of McNair Road. The bird is often on the wires around this junction, and sometimes perches on bushes in the surrounding meadows. Happy birding, Ethan Meleg (Tobermory) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
