This morning at approximately 11 am Barb Roberson went birding on the Milton Road . We saw at least a dozen Snow Geese mixed in with a flock of Canada Geese. The whiteness of their feather glow and they are easy to spot in the Canada Geese flock. They were on the North side of Milton just west of the intersection with Perrault Road We then took Perrault road to Trim and soon saw a flock of 30-32 Sandhill Cranes on the left side of the road.
We then took the ferry at Cumberland to Quebec to the Plaisance Provincial Park at Plaisance just past Thurso on HW 148. It is well signed and easy to find. There we saw a flock of Snow Buntings crossing the Pres Qu'il Road on the smaller of the two Islands. We also saw a number of American Wigeons on the larger Island at a duck viewing area. Happy Birding Colleen Murray Directions. Take the Innis Road East to the Anderson Road. Turn left onto Renaud and then right onto the Navan Road. Turn right onto 10th line and it turns into Smith Road. Take Smith to Milton Road then turn right and procede . The Snow Geese were between the Perrault intersection with Milton and the bridge . They were on the right. . _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
