Hi Ontbirders, This afternoon 7 Oct at 4:15 PM I observed a dozen Sandhill Cranes west of Milton Road from a position about 100 yards south of the driveway at #4000 Milton Road (between Smith and Perrault Roads). The cranes were at some considerable distance west of the road, visible against the edge of uncut corn fields.
Happy birding, Peter Campbell Ottawa, Ontario Location courtesy of NeilyWorld: >From Highway 417 (The Queensway) take exit 96 (Boundary Road).
