As of Sunday, Feb. 26 at 3:30 p.m. the female mountain bluebird was still present at the usual place on the road to the Prince Edward Point National Wildlife Area. It was foraging from a small deciduous tree just inside the fence about 200 m west of Ducks Dive Charters.
John Blaney Directions courtesy of Kathy Felkar and Mike Burge: To reach Prince Edward Point National Wildlife Area, take Main Street from the east end of downtown Picton, down the "Town Hill", and turn immediately right onto Union Street (directly across from Tip of the Bay Motel). Follow Union Street out of Picton (becomes County Road 8) for 2.5 km, and at the junction in the highway, follow County Road 17. Take County Road 17 for 6.5 km and look for the Black River Cheese sign, and turn left onto County Road 16 and follow for 1 km to the Stop sign at County Road 13. Follow County Road 13 past Black River Cheese for 23.6 km to the Prince Edward Point National Wildlife Area (County Road 13 eventually becomes Long Point Road). Follow the Long Point Road until you see Ducks Dive Charters _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
