Total observation time: 8.25 hours

Official Counter:John Stevens

Observers:Fiona Byrne

Visitors:
A few in the late afternoon when the CA got busy.


Weather:
Rain until after 9 EST, then drizzle for about an hour,  overcast until
about 12:30 EST, thereafter a mix of sun and cloud.  Cold and damp until
the sun appeared with winds from the north to northeast but light to
moderate.

Raptor Observations:
Local TVs were up and about all day, even in the drizzle.  Local Cooper's
Hawk seen briefly in a dive and local RTs seen, particularly an immature. 
The Merlin appeared to be migrating, high along the edge of the escarpment.


Non-raptor Observations:
Surprisingly little for the date.  Almost nothing but Blue Jays and
bushy-tailed rats at the feeders.  Barn Swallows, Purple Martins, a Great
Blue Heron and Ruby-crowned Kinglets but no warblers were seen or heard.

Predictions:
Forecast is partly sunny and warmer with light winds.  This could help
improve the flow but birds may be high.

http://www.niagarapeninsulahawkwatch.org/


Site Description:
Hawk migration monitoring at the Beamer Memorial Conservation Area in
Grimsby, Ontario is conducted by the Niagara Peninsula Hawkwatch (NPH). All
counting is done by volunteers. Not all members are counters nor does a
counter have to be a member. Typically one person is the designated counter
for each day but other observers present assist with the spotting and
identification.  Counting is done from a steel observation tower with a
wooden floor. For wind protection on cold days, particularly in March, a
black plastic wind guard is installed around the tower's platform. This
platform easily accommodates ten people but on most busy days, no more than
five or six observers would be on it.  

The site lies within a publicly accessible property owned by the Niagara
Peninsula Conservation Authority. There is no charge for admittance. The
tower stands in the centre of a mowed area with a gravel ring road near the
outer edge. This provides lots of room to park vehicles (along the road)
and set up lawn chairs, telescopes and cameras. Toilet facilities are
present.  During the counting season, the NPH erect a counting board to
display seven day's worth of observation data for the public. The box
enclosing the sign contains brochures and silhouette sheets for the public
as well as bulletin boards with news and historical sighting records.

 

Directions to site:
To get to Beamer CA, take the QEW to Exit 71/72, follow Christie
St./Mountain St. to the top of the escarpment, turn right on Ridge Road
West, and go 1.6km to Quarry Rd. Turn right on Quarry Rd. and drive 100m to
the conservation area. Parking is normally available inside the park. If
parking at the entrance or on the roads, do NOT leave valuables in your
car.

Please note: Data in this report is not official until reviewed and finalized 
after the end of the season. © 2016 Niagara Peninsula Hawkwatch

Re: [Ontbirds] White-winged Dove Rondeau

[Allen Woodliffe]

Birders:

The White-winged Dove was still being seen at Rondeau at least into the middle 
of the afternoon today. However it can move around quite a bit. Shortly after 
Dan and I saw it at cottage lot 17134, it flew north and out of sight. I 
re-found the bird later, and right at the same location where it was first seen 
this morning, at lot 17266. There is a feeder beside that cottage, and the bird 
was observed to hunt for food under it on at least one occasion. It spent most 
of its time in the willow tree closer to the road.

Photos on my blog: pawsnaturenuggets.blogspot.ca 

Directions: exit Hwy 401 at interchange 101 and head south on Chatham-Kent Road 
15 straight to the park entrance. The bird was along Lakeshore Road, south of 
the Visitor Centre.

[Ontbirds] Point Pelee NP Migration Update - May 2, 2016

[festivalofbirds2016]

Despite the rain there was an obvious movement of birds into Point Pelee 
overnight. More of the common species such Rose-breasted Grosbeak and Baltimore 
Oriole, as well as White-throated & White-crowned Sparrows, Hermit, Veery and 
Wood Thrush are being seen in bigger numbers.

The duck flock on the west side of the Tip included both White-winged and Black 
Scoter this morning, as well and Bufflehead and Common Goldeneye. Horned Grebe 
are still showing well with 7 birds at the Tip and others scattered along the 
west beach. Warblers at the Tip included: Black-and-white; Nashville, Yellow, 
Yellow-rumped and Palm. Warbling Vireo was also seen at the Tip.

The Woodland Trail continues to have Blue-winged Warbler and Blue-headed Vireo 
at various locations between the Visitor Centre and Bridge C. A Prothonotary 
Warbler was reported along the marsh edge of the east side of the Woodland 
Trail. Good numbers of thrush, sparrow, and grosbeak are also on Woodland. 
Brown Thrashers were flashing across the main trail of the Woodland Trail.

An early Yellow-billed Cuckoo was reported on the West Beach Trail, originally 
at the south end of the parking lot but was seen flying north.

Outside of the Park the Black-necked Stilt has been seen again on the east end 
of Concession 1 in the flooded fields on the south side of Hillman Marsh east 
of the first 2 houses.

Hot off the press is a beautifully plumaged Piping Plover at the south end of 
the West Beach parking lot.

On the twilight tour on May 1st a small flock of Cedar Waxwing was at the 
DeLaurier parking lot and 2 Spotted Sandpiper were on the beach west of the 
Pioneer picnic area.

Good Birding,

[Ontbirds] White-winged Dove Rondeau

[Reuven Martin]

Steve Charbonneau has just found a White-winged Dove attending a feeder in
the front yard of 17266 Lakeshore Rd. in Rondeau Provincial Park. This is
just south of the visitor centre.

Re: [Ontbirds] Peregrine Falcon in Brampton

[Dianne Witzell]

On Sunday, May 1, 2016, at approximately 5:00 PM, I observed a peregrine falcon 
landing atop one lamp stand in the southernmost part of the parking lot of the 
Superstore located on Lancashire Lane, which is just south of the southwest 
corner of Steeles Avenue and Hurontario/Main St., as I entered the store. It 
was still there when I exited, but then flew off to the southwest. However, I 
saw it return as I reached my car and perch atop a different lamp stand. I 
drove close enough to see a little detail, and although did not have my bins 
with me, could make out its malar stripes. Body detail was hidden from view by 
the lights on the stand. I had also seen it earlier in the afternoon, about 
1:45 PM, as I was driving west along Steeles Avenue towards Hurontario/Main, 
(which is why I was on the lookout for it when I went to Superstore). It was 
flying in the sky above Superstore, chasing a pigeon. Both birds flew out of 
view, obscured by trees and the Superstore building, so I do not know 
 whether the peregrine succeeded in capturing its prey. I suspect there may be 
a nest somewhere nearby.
