Greetings Ontbirders,
I was surprised to find a roadkilled Turkey Vulture this morning on
Wooler Rd, where Cold Creek crosses the road, about 5 km N of Hwy 401,
northeast of Trenton. Sadly the bird was completely wrecked and could
not be salvaged for the ROM. This is still (in my mind) a very rare
bird in December in these parts. There was no sign of another
roadkill which might have attracted it.
On a side note, the male Rose-breasted Grosbeak at Presqu'ile PP was
still at the feeder (Pioneer trail parking area) yesterday morning.
It has a bum wing and one wonders how long it will survive before cold
takes its toll.
Cheers, and happy holidays
Doug McRae
