[Ontbirds]GEESE, lots of GEESE!
Wed, Mar 30, 2005 6:03 PM
I estimate seeing at least 25,000 to 30,000 CANADA GEESE and managed, by numerous stops at exit ramps, to count at least 70 SNOW GEESE among them. I also had a flock of 11 NORTHERN PINTAILS passing over with the geese. The day probably has more to offer, so... Good Birding, Frode Jacobsen Kingston

[Ontbirds]Bald Eagles/Snow Buntings-Innisfil
Wed, Dec 14, 2005 6:07 PM
On the 20th Sideroad at the 2nd Line of Innisfil was a flock in my estimate to number close to 600 Snow Buntings. When they flew about it was just a mass of "Cloud". A spectacular sight!

This brings the 2-day total for the Etobicoke waterfront to 4533, a very significant number considering that the eastern arctic population which follows the Atlantic/Great Lakes routing in spring is estimated at 40,000!!!!) Also notable was a Little Gull.

[Ontbirds]Greater Snow Geese - Green Valley
Thu, Apr 17, 2008 12:22 PM
A review of sequential pictures of birds on the ground indicated that there were over 22,000 birds, not the 12,000 mentioned (the field estimate was conservative). This would make it the third largest single flock recorded.

[Ontbirds] Common Terns, Little Gulls- Port Burwell
Sat, Aug 29, 2009 12:12 AM
I estimated 3,500 to 5,000 birds today. There were close to 2,000 on the small east beach in the village itself and larger numbers on the Provincial Park beach. I also spotted at least two little gulls amidst the perhaps 1000 Bonaparts gulls present. Shorebirds were almost absent with the exception of a few killdeer, sanderling and spotted sandpipers.

I would estimate 2-3 males. I looked for the A. White Pelican at Erieau around lunch, but came up empty handed. Last week (Thursday) 2 Little Gull's were present at the pier in Erieau. Good Birding, Ken Burrell Directions: Heading east on hwy. 3 from Wheatley, go about 2km.

We estimated up to 1000 birds. As the sun was low from the 15/16 there were streams & streams of geese coming into these same fields to feed. A tremendous sight & experience. We also had an early delightful flock of Snow buntings.    Good birding, Susan Menzies

Good product in my estimation. I still check the system every couple of weeks with soapy water and pressure gauge and I always shut off at the tank when not using. The electronics augment my safety procedures, not replace them. Al Johnson 34' Marine Trader "Angelina"
