The male owner of the property at 735 East Lakeshore Road requests repeatedly that birders not go up the driveway but remain on the road. The male neighbor that shares the driveway (723 East Lakeshore) asks that no one park opposite the driveway because of all the ice in the driveway, he is afraid his car might slide into the parked cars. Jerry Lazarczyk Grand Island NY We and others saw the Spotted Towhee in Port Colborne, Ont. this morning. It never came to the seed but was seen in the shrubs nearby for about 30 minutes. It is a very well-marked adult male. Directions for the Spotted Towhee (from John Black's message) - To get to Lakeshore Road East you need to find Lorraine Road and follow it south to Lakeshore Road East. Lorraine Road can be reached by traveling about 1 to 2 km east of Highway 140 on Highway 3 . Turn south on Lorraine and then West on Lakeshore Road East. Then go to 735 Lakeshore Road East. Please do not park in the driveway or the graveyard. Instead park on the road. The bird has been spending much of its time in the shrubs separating the two driveways The bird may then go to the feeder on the balcony or to the ground below the balcony where there is some seed. The interval between visits to the feeder on Friday was about 2 hours. You need to be patient. The bird is very flighty . Try to see the bird in the hedge from the bottom of the driveway. If that fails, then walk about half way up the driveway until you see the the balcony. There is also a female Eastern Towhee present. There will be a guest book for you to sign in the mailbox at the bottom of the driveway. Good birding!
