[Ontbirds] Am. Three-toed Woodpecker - Algonquin Park

2017-12-03 Thread Lev Frid via ONTBIRDS
Hello birders,

Myself and Murray Shields with our group had a very vocal Three-toed
Woodpecker just then, slightly north of the Costello Creek picnic area on
Opeongo Road.

Algonquin can be accessed via HW 400, 11 and 60. Opeongo Road is 46.3 km
from the west gate.

[Ontbirds] Gyrfalcon in Barrie - NOT

2017-12-03 Thread Burke Korol via ONTBIRDS
Birders,

After a thorough analysis of my and some better photos, it is evident that
the large falcon in Barrie yesterday was a juvenile Peregrine. A bird,
which was undoubtedly the same individual, was seen by other local birders
again this morning in the same area.

Apologies for the false alarm.

[Ontbirds] Orange crowned warbker, peregrine falcon - Humber bay Easr, toronto

2017-12-03 Thread alvo via ONTBIRDS
The O.C. Warbler was on the small hill next to (just south) the small bridge a 
bit east of main parking lot. Superb views. Seen at 12 noon.
 Just before that, a peregrine was feasting on a pigeon near eastern tip of 
park. Was on a tree stump 15 feet high, providing exceptional views.
From Lakeshore, go south at Parkland Rd. and park at main lot. Good birding.

[Ontbirds] Brant, Crystal Beach

2017-12-03 Thread John Schmelefske via ONTBIRDS
The Brant formerly at the Crystal Beach boat launch is now on the beach
about a kilometre west of there.  It is west of the double level peer.
Best aproached from parking lot at 4155 Erie Rd. west of where it is
foraging with some mallards.

[Ontbirds] Northern Rough-winged Swallows - Control Gates, Niagara Falls

2017-12-03 Thread Josh Vandermeulen via ONTBIRDS
There are at least 3 N. Rough-winged Swallows, flying over the Niagara River 
across from the Control Gates. They are mid river and ranging widely over the 
section of the river between the Control Gates and the rusty barge. 

Good birding,
Josh Vandermeulen
