This past weekend saw a small number of Ring-necked
ducks on the Mill Pond in the village of Hillsburgh.
There were also a few Common Mergansers, Scaup,
Buffleheads & Common Goldeneye. Just north of
Hillsburgh in a flooded field a little north of
Birkbank Farms, on the right side of the road, there
have been a few Northern Pintails foraging, alond with
a Trumpeter Swan on occasion.

Hillsburgh is located just slightly north of the
village of Erin, approximately 20 minutes south west
of Orangeville.

Good Birding.

Paloma Plant.
