Hi Ontbirders: Yesterday afternoon, I had a flock of about 20 Bohemian Waxwings in the Burnt Lands Provincial Park west of Ottawa. They were high up in scattered dead conifer snags off Golden Line Road. In the same area, three Eastern Bluebirds were in a singing duel from the tops of conifer snags. They are clearly establishing territory and periodically tried to chase each other off. Plenty of dead hollow trees for them to establish nests. Good birding Peter Hall Directions: From Highway 417 west of Ottawa, exit at March Road (#44) and proceed west about 10 km to Golden Line Road. Turn south and the reserve is on the left-hand side. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
