Hi Ontbirders: At 8:20 am today, a single Sandhill Crane flew low over my house in Old Ottawa South and then over Billings Bridge on Bank Street heading in a southeast direction, likely towards Mer Bleue bog. This is a backyard lifer for me after living in my house in downtown Ottawa for thirty years. Good birding Peter Hall Directions: Directions:From Highway 417 going east, exit at number 120 to Bank Street. Turn right on Bank (south) and follow it until it crosses the Rideau River at Billings Bridge. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
