A correction to the directions for the Tufted Titmouse (apologies to Bob and Chris!)
>From the Ross' Goose location, continue south and turn right onto St John, just past the Hallville sign, then turn right onto Christina Crescent. The bird was again there around 3:30 off and on for the next 1 1/2 hours, and possibly after I left. > At ~ 11:15 today (Nov. 21), and adult ROSS'S GOOSE was discovered by Tom > Hanrahan, Mark Gawn and Marc Bosc (also seen by us & Mike Tate) with a flock > of approx. 130 Snow Geese at a pond near Reid's Mills south of Ottawa. From > Hwy 416, take exit 57 to Bankfield Rd., go south and then east through > Manotick. Cross the Rideau River along the main east-west drag (Mitch Owens > Rd.) and look for Stagecoach Rd. on your right. Right (south) on Stagecoach > and proceed through Osgoode to Reid's Mills, where Stagecoach becomes > Regional Rd. #1. There is a pond in a farm field on the east side between > farms #1215 and #1255. The goose was still present at ~12:30. > > Incidentally (and most conveniently!) this location is just a short distance > north of Hallville, which is where a TUFTED TITMOUSE was reported yesterday. > The Titmouse was NOT seen this morning, but may still be in the area. > Directions from the Ross's Goose location are: Continue south on the #1 > then turn left on Kerrs Ridge Rd., then left on St. John, then immediately > right on Christina Crescent. The address is 1676 Christina Cr. Please stay > on the east side of the property near the pines, and do not approach the > feeders.
