Hi all,
After a day of household/yard chores Penny and I decided to take a quick
drive around the 'hood', leaving home ~4:30pm we headed to Kettle Point where I
found 5 Dunlin on the rocks but not much else. Further south(across from the
recreation area) we had a 4th year Bald Eagle -99% white tail/mottled head -
fly low over us and land on a large rock in the bay. There were also many
Red-winged Blackbirds and a few Am. Tree Sparrows here.
On the west side Hwy #21 just south of Jericho Rd there were 2 Eastern
Bluebirds. An adult Northern Shrike was only 3 bushes west of Mollard Line
north of Greenway Road and when it flew further along the fencerow 5 Eastern
Bluebirds flushed and driving up Mollard towards GB we saw about a dozen Horned
Lark and 4 Killdeer.
This morning I had a Fox Sparrow under my feeders along with the many
juncos and a few White-throated Sparrows and all the usual titmice etc.
Cheers! Maris Maris Apse 10094 Red Pine Road, Box 22, RR #2 Grand Bend
