Hello Everyone,
White-winged Crossbills have decided to fly up and be counted for London's 100th consecutive Christmas Bird Count. The Hugh Casbourn/Sue Southon party spotted a flock of 35 White-winged Crossbills at about 10:30 this morning in spruce trees on the west side of Crestwood Drive, approximately 750 metres south of Commissioners Road. For those familiar with London, Crestwood Drive is opposite Reservoir Park at the top of Snake Hill. I am posting for the group because they are still in the field looking for more rarities. Happy Between-Storms Birding! Sue Read Directions: >From Highway 402, go north on Wonderland Road. Turn left (west) at Commissioners Road. Turn left (south) at Crestwood Drive, which is the road opposite Reservoir Park. Check out the spruce trees about 750 metres to the south. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
