Mike and I made it down to Long Point, this morning before the rain came. Not as much waterfowl as we expected. We didn't see any Tundra Swans, nor many dabbling ducks. Below are our highlights.
Yellow-rumped Warbler 1 along Concession A at the main bridge, definitely a winterer, also along Concession A, 3 N. Flickers, Brown Creepers etc Northern Goshawk 1 immature along Hasting's Drive gave great looks, sitting and hunting over the marsh Horned Grebe 1 in the Big Creek channel along the causeway Cackling Goose 1 in a flock of Canada's at the Turkey Point overlook Wood Ducks were scattered, had about 30 for the day Good Birding! Ken Burrell Heidelberg, Ont Directions: Long Point - take hwy 59 south Concession A - take 59 south and turn right (west), drive as far as you can where the bridge is closed and walk Hasting's Drive - continuing on 59, past the causeway the hwy will turn 90 degrees to the east, go west on Hastings _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
