We set out this morning looking for 50 species...we came away with 65 plus
House Sparrows. :-D
Below are the lists from today. I got up here early with my family and did
the auto tour and got 40 species.
Then we went to Magee and picked up another 10+ for the day.
Then returned to Ottawa to get the Great Horned Owl...plus a couple more
for the day.
Then hit Metzger to pick up a Herring Gull and a Sandhill Crane.
Once again Black Swamp has exceded expectations!
Happy birdingand God bless!
