Hi Everyone
A male Barrow's Goldeneye was present at Remic Rapids, just east of the
Champlain Bridge at dusk. It was in a flock of approximately 200+ Common
Goldeneyes roosting between Remic Rapids and the bridge. This site has had
at least one over wintering male Barrow's for a number of years. Earlier, at
Dick Bell Park there was 1 distant juv. Red-throated Loon and a very tame
Brant gazing near the first parking lot.
good birding

Directions: For the Barrow's Goldeneye: take Parkdale Ave. north
from Hwy. 417 to the Western Parkway and travel west turning right off
parkway at Remic Rapids Lookout. You can view the goldeneyes in the
rapids from the lookout. If you require additional information, please email
me privately.
