Hi Ontbirders,
This afternoon 21 March I went to Milton Road to observe the geese (and some
Northern Pintails), then went around local roads. At 3:50 PM I observed a
male Eastern Bluebird on Giroux Road some 20 meters east of where the road
crests at the Lafarge Quarry gates (The quarry ponds are still frozen). It
initially was on the telephone wire then moved between a couple of fence
posts on both sides of the road. I also had at 3:30PM a Killdeer on
Perreault Road just west of the intersection with Trim Road.
Happy Birding

Directions: If on highway 417 east of Ottawa, take exit 96 (Boundary Road)
and go north to Russell Road then right (easterly) to Milton Road. Turn left
up Milton. Perrault Road is the first right not long after the bridge. It
ends at Trim Road where you can jog on/off Trim onto McFadden Road and
continue easterly to Frank Kenny (which also intersects Russell Rd). Turn
left up Frank Kenny, cross the Colonial Road intersection (4-way stop) and
the next right is Giroux Road.
