Hi all
Today Sept 18, between about 2:00pm and 3:00pm I saw a Great Egret in the body of water at the s-curve at Earl Armstrong Road. Also a Greater White-fronted Goose was with the Canadas in the pond at Burnside pit on Moodie drive. Directions courtesy of Neilyworld Earl Armstrong Road: From Highway 417 (The Queensway) take exit 121A (Bronson Avenue). Go SSE on Bronson for 3.6 km, crossing the Rideau River on the Dunbar Bridge and going over Riverside Drive, before bearing right to take the Brookfield Road exit. In 0.1 km merge right onto Brookfield Road and drive 0.5 km to Riverside Drive. Turn left onto Riverside Drive and go 5.9 km to Limebank Roadt. Continue to SSE onto Limebank(the road is re-configured so that there is no turn now) and drive 5.0 km to Earl Armstrong Road. Turn left or ENE into the Earl Armstrong Road site. Moodie drive pond: From Highway 416 take exit 66 (Fallowfield Road). If southbound, a 0.4 km offramp dumps onto Fallowfield, where you will turn right or west. If northbound, the 0.4 km offramp brings you to Fallowfield, where you will turn left or west onto it and in 0.5 km join the southbound offramp traffic. Both groups will now follow Fallowfield Road west for an additional 0.4 km to reach Moodie Drive. Turn left or southeast onto Moodie Drive and go 5.3 km, passing Cambrian Road to reach the quarries (second gate on the left). Park along the side of the road without blocking the access. Private property, do not enter. cheers Rick Collins _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
