Hi Ontbirders, We had an excellent afternoon birding along the Barron Canyon Road in Algonquin Park. We had Gray Jays at many roadside stops, 15 individuals in total. We tallied 5 Black-backed Woodpeckers, including 2 along the Barron Canyon Trail. Only one White-winged Crossbill was heard flying overhead. Starting with 2 Common Redpolls just outside the park, we saw several more small flocks in the park, totaling about 120 birds. Along Hwy 26 southeast of the park, we saw a juvenile Northern Goshawk.

Happy birding!
