There were Rusties today at the south end of Strongville Road, feeding in the tree line @ waters edge in the adjacent field from where the Tundra Swans are being viewed. The Nottawasaga River is at record levels this year, and waterfowl levels are as well for this area. Sandhill Cranes were only heard today from the surrounding area, not seen. Other good viewing areas around Minesing wetlands north are at the intersection of Ronald Road/Glengarry landing Road South (500 Ring-necked ducks, Redhead, Osprey, etc), at the end of both Mcnabb Rd and Richardson Rd (Common Loon on Wednesday).
