Birders,
Andrew Don has texted to advise that he has re-found and photographed the white Gyrfalcon at the Lafleche Road Landfill, east of Cassleman. The bird flew and landed on a pole for a time, but has since flown off. Andrew is on site with others hoping to relocate. Directions courtesy of Jaques Bouvier. The Laflèche Rd landfill site is located at the dead end of Laflèche Road. >*From HWY 417 take HWY 138 south (exit 58), turning right on Laflèche road *which is the first road south of the 417. The dump is at the end of the dead end road, however, the public is not allowed past the main gate. The road is fairly busy so it is best to park in one of the loading zones on the right, if possible. Look for the Gyrfalcon chasing the numerous starlings or gulls at the site; not always visible from the road. Good luck, Len Manning _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
