Hi there, Today, from 15:05 - 15:40 PM, I observed 6 Rough-legged Hawks (5 light morph, 1 dark morph) along a 500 meter long stretch of road (Earl Armstrong)!
Not like this species is a rarity, but I figured with a density like that I'd toss a note up on this list serve. Photos are posted on my blog site. Directions, as per those available on neilyworld.com: From Highway 417 (The Queensway) take exit 121A (Bronson Avenue). Go SSE on Bronson for 3.6 km, crossing the Rideau River on the Dunbar Bridge and going over Riverside Drive, before bearing right to take the Brookfield Road exit. In 0.1 km merge right onto Brookfield Road and drive 0.5 km to Riverside Drive. Turn left onto Riverside Drive and go 5.9 km to Limebank Road straight ahead. Continue straight SSE onto Limebank and drive 5.0 km to Earl Armstrong Road. Turn left or ENE into the Earl Armstrong Road site. Good birding, Jon Ruddy http://jonruddy.blogspot.ca/ _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
