On Thursday, Jan. 29 at approximately 8:30 a.m., I saw what could have only been an immature golden eagle on the hydro line on the east side of Dixie Road, just south of Mayfield Rd. The bird was hunkered down on the line so the legs were not visible. But the size was that of a smallish eagle, the chest was red brown and there was no visible white anywhere on the bird. The specific location was south of the two bungalows on that stretch of road and right hear the new development, which is across from the stormwater pond. I drove the same stretch of road Friday and did not see the bird, but the range is large, so it could have travelled over toward Heart Lake. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
