This afternoon, we decided to take a drive along Hwy. 33 heading west
towards Bath, Ontario. Along the route, we noticed numerous small flocks
of COMMON GOLDENEYES just off the shore. Of particular interest was a male
RED-BREASTED MERGANSER that was diving for food about 75 feet off the shore
in Bath at Finkle's Shore Park.
If you are travelling from Toronto or Montreal along the 401, turn off at
the Wilton Road/County Road 4 exit (593)* -- this exit is just west of
Kingston. Turn south on the Wilton Road/County Road 4 and follow it all
the way down to Lake Ontario. At the lake, turn right on Hwy 33 and head
west towards Bath.
Cheers, Peg
