Just a note for those hoping to see the birds down at Bronte Harbour. These birds have not been seen in the morning to my knowledge. It seems like the best time to see these birds are after 5 in the afternoon when they have been seen consistently over the past four days. Yesterday a second bird was found and the pair were displaying courtship behavior. This also lead to the one crow not being as vocal as it was the past three days perhaps because it has found another so patience is necessary. They seem to favour the lawn down near the restaurant. Yesterday they were seen on the lawn with an American Crow for good comparison. The birds did call eventually. Just wanted to provide these notes so people wouldn't waste a trip and I have had a few phone calls asking if they have been seen.
Directions: Directions: Exit the QEW at Bronte Rd. (Oakville) and go to the lake. Oakville transit routes 2 and 14 serve the area from the Bronte and Oakville GO stations respectively.
