Birders, While searching a vast expanse of agricultural land following up on Jon ruddys Jan 9th report of gray partridges on moodie drive in Ottawa west, Lisa Teskey and I have discovered and photographed a group of 12 gray partridges about 500 meters north of where Jon reported. We are viewing them at house 4184 from the road. There is a small corn stalk row just north of the driveway and they are huddled in here and are also feeding on driveway.
>From moodie and brophy travel north about 1 k to house with green marker 4184 moodie. Check the corn stalks beside the driveway. The birds are giving a funny grating chuckle call also. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
