Birded Amherst Island for a bit today and located the "Whie" Red-Tailed Hawk. Due to not wanting to cross fenced property without permission I was still able to get some low quality images for ID purposes. Bird was sighted on the south end of the island, a fair ways inland.See link below, there are several at the site.

Exit off Hwy. 401 at exit 593 (County Rd. 4, Camden East) and drive south to the very end (Millhaven). Turn right on Hwy. 33 and drive 100 metres until you see the sign for the Amherst Island ferry. The ferry (20 minute trip) leaves the mainland on the half hour and leaves the island on the hour. Cost is $8.00 Canadian round trip. There are no gas stations on the island. There are restrooms on the ferry and at the island ferry dock.
