Dear Ontario Birders: I am writing to tell you the sad news that Terry Osborne passed away last Sunday evening.
Terry lived for many years in Erin, then moved to Dundas where he spent many happy years. Terry was a skilled birder and photographer. He was a Point Pelee regular, returning every spring for over 30 years. Friends of Terry will remember his jokes, his friendly smile and his joy in birding. Terry was always ready to help friends and strangers to find the birds. Terry had been ill for many months, but this didn't stop him from enjoying birding from his condo overlooking the Niagara Escarpment, or his regular postings on Facebook of classic rock and pointed political commentary. Terry will be greatly missed by his family and all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
