At about 10am, the Eared Grebe was actively feeding on midges on the water surface off the foot of Thickson Rd in Whitby. Also heard Sandhills calling to east of Thickson's Woods.
Later went to Lakeridge Health Services - Oshawa to check out resident Peregrines. Saw one of the pair resting on ledge at sw corner of main building. Thickson's. .... Exit 401 at Thickson's Rd, Whitby and go south to Lake Ontario. Lakeridge Health-Oshawa..... Exit 401 at Simcoe Street exit and go north on Simcoe beyond Adelaide. Hospital is on left north of "Parkwood". The Peregrine was seen from Golf Street at west end of hospital. Parking is problematic in area without paying high rates at hospital or spending time finding street parking in area and walking to hospital. Good birding, Bruce Bruce F.
