Hello, all - just got back from seeing the Ross's Goose at Reesor Pond. It
arrived about 11:00 am, I believe, and was still there at about 12:30.
Also present - a few American Pipits, one Pectoral Sandpiper, one Snow Goose
(right beside the Ross's for a nice comparison), American Coots, Greater
Yellowlegs, Ruddy Ducks, and assorted other ducks.
Good birding,
John
Directions:- REESOR POND
Reesor Pond is on the northwest corner of Reesor Road and Hwy 407 in Markham.
It is bounded by Reesor Road on the east, Donald Cousens Parkway ( formerly
Markham By-Pass ) on the west, Hwy 407 on the south and Hwy 7 on the north.
Exit Hwy 407 at Exit number 96 ( go north ) on Donald Cousens Parkway and you
will see the pond on the north side of the highway beside Donald Cousens
Parkway. Your best bet is to drive north on Donald Cousens Parkway to Hwy 7.
Turn right (east) on Hwy 7 and drive the very short distance to Ressor Road.
Turn right (south) on Reesor Road and drive down to the gate on your right and
park here (do not block gate ).
