After some searching she was found dead near the top of the Christmas tree that Janice and her husband had set up for her. "Hannah" will be missed by all those who took an interest in her, especially Janice and her husband who did everything they possibly could to keep her alive during these past cold weeks.

During this span of time it frequented an area about 200 feet north of the Children's Garden along Colborne Lodge Road, in the grape tangles and other vegetation near some Blue Spruces. It was always behind the fence. It stayed from 5 to 20 feet high and allowed for absolutely outstanding looks. It certainly is a beautiful bird, and none of the books we looked at capture its brilliant yellow-green colouration. >From Lakeshore Blvd. turn north onto Colborne Lodge Road and park in the first >parking lot on the right hand side.
