Eglinton Flats is a small 9.3 ha park located at South-East corner of intersection of Jane St. and Eglinton Ave. Humber Bay East Park is at the South end of Park Lawn Rd. Good Birding, Jacek Pawlikowski PS Northern Pintail is not present in Humber Bay Park East. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
