For those that may not have yet seen the Ross's Goose, and since it has not been reported since Thursday, Bev McDonald and myself can report that it is still at Reesor Pond at noon on October 28th.
Also present - a few American Pipits, Greater Yellowlegs, Ruddy Ducks, and assorted other ducks. A quick check of the surrounding fields did not yield any Snow Geese though. Good birding, Peter Sproule Scarborough ON Directions: Reesor Pond is on the northwest corner of Reesor Road and Hwy 407 in Markham. It is bounded by Reesor Road on the east, Donald Cousens Parkway (formerly Markham By-Pass) on the west, Hwy 407 on the south and Hwy 7 on the north. Exit Hwy 407 at Exit number 96 (go north) on Donald Cousens Parkway and you will see the pond on the north side of the highway beside Donald Cousens Parkway. Your best bet is to drive north on Donald Cousens Parkway to Hwy 7. Turn right (east) on Hwy 7 and drive the very short distance to Ressor Road. Turn right (south) on Reesor Road and drive down to the gate on your right and park here (do not block gate). _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
