Greetings ONTBirders:
At 11:30am at Mer Bleue, two NORTHERN SHRIKES were observed from the eastern
side of the boardwalk, several hundred meters out into the bog. One of the
shrikes, I'm assuming the male, was vocalizing for several minutes.
Unfortunately, no sign of the BLACK-BACKED WOODPECKER that seems to frequent
the area at random intervals.
Pat
DIRECTIONS: From the 417, exit at Anderson Road and head north towards Russell
Road. Continue on Anderson, turning right onto Ridge Road. The parking lot
for the Mer Bleue Bog is at the end of Ridge Road.
