My daughter, not a birder, but keen on raptors, wants to know if anybody else saw a bald eagle yesterday at 4:30 flying low, to the south at Lawrence and Post Road in the north west part of Toronto. Her observation was of a very large, black hawk-like bird with typical finger wings, a small white head, soaring low towards Edwards Gardens. thanks From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jun 21 22:24:32 2007 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Delivered-To: [email protected] Received: from extsmtp5.localnet.com (extsmtp5.localnet.com [207.251.201.57]) by king.hwcn.org (Postfix) with SMTP id F3BB9634A3 for <[email protected]>; Thu, 21 Jun 2007 22:24:25 -0400 (EDT) Received: (qmail 12545 invoked by uid 1012); 22 Jun 2007 02:24:16 -0000 Received: from 10.30.201.11 by nolster (envelope-from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, uid 1005) with qmail-scanner-2.01st (spamassassin: 3.1.7-deb. perlscan: 2.01st.
