I found a dead Brown Creeper at the North East corner of King and York street in downtown Toronto today around 10:45 a.m. There are no trees in the immediate area - probably ran into a window, but seems pretty out of place.

This morning 22 Little Gulls and 984 Bonaparte's Gulls were counted. This year the Little Gulls appear to be remaining in the marsh longer. They are roosting on the gravel bar and floating logs that have been provided for them. However if a Peregrine Falcon come by(like Monday) the birds quickly leave the marsh and do not return for hours. At 10:45 this morning when I left there were still 9 Little Gulls remaining in the marsh. The gravel bar island and all floating logs are visible from the GM platform. Other birds seen this morning include: 1 Sandhill Crane 1 Immature Bald Eagle 20 species of waterfowl ( 250 birds approx) including 5 Trumpeter Swans, 7 Northern Shovelers, 4 Redheads, 9 Ruddy Ducks, 4 Northern Pintails, and 7 American Wigeon. 18 American Coots 2 Virginia Rails 1 Sora 2 Caspian Terns 4 Pied-billed Grebes In Ghost Road woods (forest on N side of marsh) there were 2 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, and 1 House Wren In Lake Ontario offshore of Oshawa Second Marsh- Darlington Provincial Park the Gulls were in 3 rafts between 200 and 400m offshore. Also seen were small numbers of Horned and Red-necked Grebes, Common Loons, and 251 Buffleheads. Also a new species for the area appeared just west of the marsh. There was 1 Wild Turkey in the field just north of Oshawa Harbour Mammals seen this morning include Beaver, Muskrat, Mink and White-tailed Deer. Friends of Second Marsh will be hosting Little Gull viewing April 22 and 23, starting at dawn until 10:00 a.m. each day. Scopes and binoculars will be set up, courtesy of Bushnell, on both days and representatives of the Canadian Wildlife Service and Friends of Second Marsh will be on hand both Saturday and Sunday to assist.
