Found a lone Red-necked Grebe on Gull Lake, east of the Gull River mouth on Sandy Bay Rd. yesterday around noon. Today, the first white-winged gull appeared at the Haliburton dump...a dark, first winter bird. Observed around 1:30 pm.
Gull Lake is S of Minden. Take Hwy 35 S from Minden to Sandy Bay Rd. Bird was about 100m off shore immediately after the lake comes into view. Photos taken. Haliburton Dump is W of the village of Haliburton, off Cty Rd 21. Take Industrial Park Rd. N to the landfill. Good birding, Ed Poropat Haliburton, ON _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
