Today (22 April 2012) at 3:30 pm I found a Black Vulture circling over the
bridge with four Turkey Vultures. I am wondering if a pair from the group that
wintered there is now nesting in the cliffs along the river. Is any one doing
a breeding bird survey in this area?
This bridge is located just NORTH of the SIR ADAM Beck Hydro development and
is most of NORTHERLY of the three bridges crossing over the Niagara River from
Ontario to New York. From THE GTA TAKE THE QEW TOWARDS NIAGARA FALLS AND FORT
ERIE AND THEN (JUST BEYOND AND EAST OF THE WELLAND CANAL BRIDGE) take Hwy.
#405 exit. THE LAST EXIT BEFORE THE BRIDGE TAKES YOU DOWN TO THE NIAGARA
PARKWAY. Sorry for the confusion.
