Re: [Ontbirds] Brown Pelican over Thorncliffe Mall
Hi OntBirders, My apologies for the lack of info in my report. The Pelican was observed by my nephew Daniel Fisher, a non-birder with lots of experience seeing Brown Pelicans in Florida and Mexico, and his girlfriend. At roughly 11:00am the bird was seen flying in a southwest direction over Thorncliffe Mall, which is in the Leaside / Thorncliffe Park area of Toronto.

[Ontbirds] Purple Finch - backyard, Toronto
I'm thought I'd post this here due to the lack of reports of this species this winter... This morning at 9:40am a female Purple Finch appeared at my feeders while I was observing 6 House Finches that were already there. Although the feeders are less than 2 metres from the kitchen window I quickly reached for my binoculars to get an even better view and a positive ID of the bird. Of course when I got my camera the bird had flown. Walter Fisher ___ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
