Hey Birders,
We had a single adult Broad-wing fly low over our yard in Heidelberg this afternoon. There were quite a few birds flying over while Mike and I were outside, between 1-2:30. Also seen were 16 Red-tail's, 4 Cooper's, 1 Sharp-shinned, 1 N. Harrier, 5 Turkey Vultures, 1 Common Loon and a quite a few Tree Swallows. Also of interest, particularly for local birders was 1 Common Tern at Laurel Creek on April 7th (only 2nd time we've seen this species in the region, first record was April 14, 2006, at the same location). Other birds seen in the area since Monday have included; 2 N. Goshawks (both today, in different locations), Chipping Sparrow and a few Savannah Sparrows. If anyone wants directions, just email me. Good Birding! Ken Burrell [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
