The VARIED THRUSH (adult male) male that Tom Devesceri and I discovered at 10 AM this morning was see again at 11AM and 2PM this afternoon. It frequents the feeders at the north-west corner of the property at 988 Calypso Rd. At 2PM, we found a BLACK-BACKED WOODPECKER (adult male) at 721 Clarence-Cambridge RD. The woodpecker was in a small wooded area across from address 721. Please note that the feeders at 721 Clarence-Cambridge Rd have had EVENING GROSBEAKS in recent days. RED CROSSBILLS were found on January 2nd where Bertrand Rd intersects Martel Rd.
Giovanni Pari Directions: VARIED THRUSH: From the 417, take the Limoges Exit, North on Limoges Rd, then first right (east) on Calypso Rd. Drive nearly to the end of Calypso Rd (about 6km) to address 988. BLACK-BACKED WOODPECKER: Continue to the end of Calypso Rd where the road makes a 90 degree turn towards the north and becomes Bertrand Rd. Drive approx. 3 km on Bertrand Rd to Clarence-Cambridge Rd. Turn right (east) and reach address 721 within 1 km. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
