Ontbirders,A pair of Common Raven were cavorting over the Beachville Lime Pond
area this afternoon. This is the third record from this vicinity and some very
suitable [potential] nesting habitat is found just to the west, where the large
Carmeuse limestone quarries are found.The resident male Peregrine returned to
his throne atop the Lime Kilns just to the north of the parking area and a
flurry of expectable mid-March migrants followed the Thames River valley
eastward throughout the afternoon.To reach the Lime Pond trails - from
Ingersoll Road, take Domtar Road 150 m north, over the river, then turn right
into the parking area. The trail gate is directly east and the kilns are
clearly visible about 300 m to the north.Cheers,
