The Western Tanager was seen again this morning at 11:30 in Durham Court Park on Waverly street south in Oshawa. It was seen on the west side of the woodlot of the park feeding on buckthorn berries. It flew across the railway tracks shortly after. It was an early Christmas present for my son (who actually found it) and for another birder who was also there at the time. It was not associating with any other birds and was very active.
Directions From 401 take exit # 415 to Stephenson Road North in Oshawa. Turn left (west) on Gibb Street (first light after the railway overpass) then turn left (south) on Waverly Street (at the pedestrian cross walk lights). It is a quiet residential street with limited parking at the dead end where the park is.
