Birders, This morning Donna Sheppard and myself found a singing male Dickcissel in the north section of Bronte Creek Provincial Park. This was at 8:30 a.m. Directions: Dundas street west of hwy 25, just east of Tremain road. You can park on the south side, there is a small pull off area with a chain across the drive. Walk the hedgerow path along the hydo corridor south until you reach a large open area where the hedgerow stops for a bit.This is the traditional spot where the Grasshopper Sparrows are. There is a pole on your right with the number 85 on a metal plate. The bird was singing from a tree about 20 feet up on the east side of the path and was very approachable. Good luck, Joyce LeChasseur Oakville.
