I went down to the S curve of Earl Armstrong Rd, south of our airport
around 4:30 pm today and found 4 shorties there. At first I watched
1 sitting on a fence post southeast of the curve. It sat for 5 or 6
minutes before starting to cover the unplowed field between the curve
and Bowesville Rd. It was soon joined be another. At this time, I
found 2 more across Earl Armstrong quartering that field. At times I
could hear some vocalizing from both sides of the road. I left around
6pm.
Earl Armstrong Rd runs between Limebank Rd, off River Rd, and High Rd
off Albion Rd. River Rd ( accessed from the 417)crosses Hunt Club Rd
which in turn can be accessed from the 416.
