Today I found the lapland longspur amongst a flock of horned larks finding food in the freshly manured field. Enjoying the feast also were twenty rock doves with interesting colour variations and Canada geese.
The field is on the east side of Courtice Road, north of Bloor Street (22) and south of Hwy 2. The farmhouse to the north is 911 number 2433. Courtice Road intersects Hwy 401 east of Oshawa. Proceed north on Courtice. Eric Davis _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
