Good evening
Today Ian Cannell and I were at Niagara Falls and immediately below the falls in The Gorge we found the Black-legged Kittiwake previously reported along with a juvenile Little Gull.
On our way home we stopped off at Stoney Creek and off the end of Gray/Green/Fruitland roads we estimated at least 50,000 waterfowl were close off shore mainly containing Long-tailed Ducks, Greater Scaup, Common Goldeneye and all 3 Scoters.
DIRECTIONS:-
NIAGARA FALLS
Niagara Falls like Pelee, Rondeau, Presqu'ile is a major area that needs no special directions to you knowledgeable Ontbirders.
GRAY ROAD, LAWRENCE SAYER’S PARK & GREEN ROAD IN STONEY CREEK
From the Toronto direction exit the QEW highway at Centennial Parkway on the south end of the Burlington Skyway. Drive under the QEW and drive a short distance to the North Service Road, turn right and drive along the Service Road to Drake Drive (just past the Gray Road overpass). Turn left on Drake and drive the short distance to Frances Avenue and turn left, drive to Gray Road and turn right and drive to the lake.
Alternately you can turn right at Frances Avenue and drive to Green Road, turn left at Green Road and drive to the lake.
For Lawrence Sayer’s Park you can turn right off Gray Road just before you get to the lake and drive to the park (obey the no parking signs here as others have received a ticket). Or you can drive straight down Drake to the park from the Service Road.
Fruitland Road is south of Gray and Green Roads.
