Folks, Today at 1:45 PM 4 BALD EAGLES were observed simultaneously along the Grand River at Glen Morris. Three were adults and 1 was an immature. At the same time 10 TRUMPETER SWANS were on the river just north of the Glen Morris high level bridge. They all appeared to be adults. There were also several BLACK DUCKS, MALLARDS, and many CANADA GEESE. Four male COMMON MERGANSERS looked in fine spring plumage. A local resident told me that he had 5 eagles at the same time nearby several days ago.
Later in the day at the Tim Horton's Camp on Glen Morris Road there were 7 more TRUMPETER SWANS (4 adults and 3 immatures). There was also a KILLDEER at the pond near the entrance to the camp. Glen Morris is a village along the Grand River between Cambridge and Paris. The Tim Horton's Camp is east of the Village of Glen Morris along Glen Morris Road Paul F. J.
