thanks to the posting this morning we had a great, albeit wet, afternoon of birding at Rattray Marsh, noted were the following: SOLITARY VIREO, BLACK AND WHITE WARBLER, MAGNOLIA (male & female), BLACK THROATED GREEN, CHESTNUT SIDED, WILSON'S, REDSTART (male & female), CARDINAL and ORIOLE, all seen within the walkway south of Bexhill Road to the Marsh, at the secondary trail that leads up the hill about 100 yds. nw of the waterpower and near the termus of Boardwalk trail that surrounds the 'knoll'. This location was very active and would anticipate the same for tomorrow.
Out in the marsh, BL, CROWNED NIGHT HERON, GADWALL and the regulars, as well as out in the lake off the marsh opening 3 RED NECKED GREBE. Sue and Dan Suess, Mississauga Rattray Marsh can be best most easily be accessed from the south end Bexhill Road off Lakeshore Boulevard about 0.5 km west of Erin Mills Parkway (just east of Clarkson). _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS mailing list [email protected] To join or leave ONTBIRDS visit http://mailman.hwcn.org/mailman/listinfo/ontbirds ONTBIRDS Guidelines may be viewed at http://www.ofo.ca/ontbirdsguide.htm
