I saw a single Chimney Swift flying over Lake Victoria in central Stratford this afternoon. It seems a very early arrival. There were several Tree Swallows as well.
Other species seen in the last few days in the Lake Victoria area include Hermit Thrush, Barn Swallow, Pine and Yellow-rumped Warbler, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Pied-billed Grebe, Bufflehead, and Winter Wren. Lake Victoria can be reached from Ontario Street (Hwy 7/8) by heading North on Front Street then turning right on Lakeside Drive. Lots of parking is available there.
