Greetings all, On Saturday is the Kingston/Napanee Plain/ Amherst Island trip that I will be leading together with Gary Ure and Mark Conboy, so I just wanted to mention some details to help anyone interested in coming to prepare. We meet at 6:30 a.m. at Tim Horton's on Division Street on the right one block south of HWY 401. From there we will drive to Opinicon Road were we should find Cerulean & Golden-winged Warblers, Yellow-throated Vireo and Black-billed and Yellow-billed Cuckoos. By 9:30 am we will head towards Sydenham for our Coffee Stop. We will check the productive Moscow Marsh for Black Tern and Least Bittern and around Newburgh for Grassland species including Loggerhead Shrike.
Since the smaller Ferry is currently in service, we want to be at the Amherst Island Ferry Terminal by 1 pm, so we all can get on the 1:30 pm Ferry. We will return to the Amherst Island ferry dock in time for the 5 pm Ferry.
