My son Robert and I viewed the Western Meadowlark at 2:30 pm today
(June 15th) as it sang from a hydro pole on the south side of Patterson
SideRoad, opposite Westview St (Cresc?).

Directions from Paul Prior's Western Meadowlark report:
From downtown Toronto, head north to the end of Hwy 427, turn west on
Hwy 7 to Hwy 50, then head north, through Bolton and on toward the
village of Palgrave. A couple of miles past Albion Hills Conservation
Area, you'll come to Patterson Sideroad, turn west onto this road and
drive for perhaps 300 metres. Park alongside the meadow and hopefully
the bird will be singing loudly again, in the meadow to the south of
the road. This was opposite the entrance to Brawton Drive.
