Birders: My calendar says it's May, but who would believe that ! After 10 hours of cold biting wind, cold showers, and thunderstorms, Ann White and myself came up with ~ 80 bird species . We had some help from our OFO hike guide, Maris Apse [thank you ].
As is often the case--our last bird was our pride and joy-- a stunning Cattle Egret in Adult Breeding plumage--6:00 pm on #3 Highway. We saw many of the birds listed elsewhere today, but we were pleased to have a 12 Sparrow day. This was a wet feat [wet feet ] indeed. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
