So far today Nov.18, as I understand, it has not been seen yet.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Directions as per Mike Burrell Brooklin is in the north end of Whitby. From the intersection of County Rd 12 (Baldwin Street) and Hwy 7 (which becomes County Rd 3/Winchester Rd to the east) go east for about 500 m to the Luther VipondMemorial Arena. Parking is available here. Walk south towards the large white communications tower turning west (right) after the tennis courts and skate park. There is a trail immediately west of here that goes over ashort wooden bridge. Follow this trail for about 400 m when it opens up a bit and there is a bench.
