During a walk in the Rouge valley today, I came across a male Ring-necked Pheasant beside Reesor Road, about 100 m south of the "Dog Pad Doggy Daycare" (about 1 km south of Steeles Ave.) Other sightings of lesser note included a pair of Great Horned Owls, a pair of Cooper's Hawks apparently on territory, Red-bellied and Pileated Woodpeckers, and a Rough-legged Hawk. Despite being in the field for 8 hours, I did not come upon any Icterids. Indeed, the only obvious migrants were crows (62), and some Ring-billed Gulls.
