The Brambling is present again today, Thursday, its second day at this site.
It feeds on the ground, often with a large group of Evening Grosbeaks -
close under a number of feeders, on the property of Vic Rizzo at 1025
McIntyre St. W. in North Bay.
Vic asks that no one come upon the lawn, but stay upon the pavement, next to
the lawn area. As said before, please park on the street(s) nearby. The bird
is quite easily spooked, but with patience, one should be able to see it
well from the edge of the driveway. Vic can, if necessary, be reached at his
cell - 705 493-8112.
McIntyre St. is just one block from Main Street at the westerly edge of
North Bay. North Bay can be reached within 3 1/2 hours of no stop-light
driving from Toronto.
The bird is a readily identified, non-breeding adult. Very pretty! Very
unusual for Ontario. (none sighted here for the past 20 years?)
