27 birders enjoyed a rather cool day birding Haldimand county today from 9 am until 4 pm
50 species seen by the group
Few waterfowl included all 3 Merganser species, Northern Shoveler and Green-winged Teal.
Raptors : many Turkey vultures and Red-tailed Hawks, 6 Northern Harriers, 3 Rough-legged, Coopers and Sharp-shinned Hawks, 7 Bald Eagles, 2 Ravens, 6 Eastern Meadowlarks, 12 Killdeer, Horned Larks, Cowbirds, Eastern Bluebirds, at least 14 Red-bellied Woodpeckers, Song Sparrows, and 3 Tufted Titmice, one of which sang repeatedly from a tree overhanging the road on Irish Line.
Many thanks to co- leader Barry Coombs.
