On Saturday evening around 7:35 p.m. my wife and I saw a bird fly into the top of a tree by Rock Chapel Road about 150 meters east of Borer's Falls that we believe was a female Western Tanager. We were able to observe it for at least five minutes, and initially thought it was a Scarlet Tanager in non-breeding plumage, but it had one very strong wing-bar and a second, lighter one. Ten minutes later it had gone, and a search for over an hour on Sunday in the area failed to locate it.
Rock Chapel Road is 1.6 km west of Clappison's Corners, the intersection of highways 5 and 6, in the former town of Flamborough (now part of Hamilton). A. L. (Sandy) Darling
