I arrived shortly before 12:00 noon and was shown the bird by 4 other birders that left shortly after I arrived. The bird was very active in a Juniper patch about 70 metres before the red gate. This is right where the writing is in the snow. (no, not yellow, Pete...) Directions are from Pete Read's post.... Good Birding, Rick Thornton Exeter Directions: Townshend's Solitaire... Go west on highway 402, past Strathroy turnoffs, to county road 6 turnoff, exit #56, Kerwood Road. Go north on this road to County Road 12, Townshend's Line (what a huge coincidence, eh). Turn west, left, and continue on Townshend's Line, about 3 roads, to Sylvan Road. Turn north, right, and this is the little hamlet of Hungry Hollow. Continue to the bridge, and park on Sylvan just over the bridge. Fossil Road, unmaintained in the winter, is on the west side of the road, and parallels the river on the north riverbank. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
