Hi All,
On a phone tip from Kayo Roy, my wife, father-in-law and I observed an
immature Trumpeter Swan (no tags) with an adult Mute Swan, on Lake Gibson in
Thorold. It was observed earlier this evening (4/16) at 6:45 PM on the
lake, south of Beaverdams Rd.
We also observed our first female Red-winged Blackbird and Barn Swallow of
2008 and 2 pairs of American Wigeons.
Bob Highcock and Jean Hampson
Directions:
From St. Catharines, travel south on Hwy 406. Exit Hwy 406 at Beaverdams Rd
and travel east along Beaverdams Rd. Lake Gibson is 0.5 km east of Hwy. 406
and a small parking area will be on the right hand side. A red barn will be
on the left.
