Hi Ontbirders
Looks like a few north species on the move. This morning I had a Boreal Chickadee pass through the backyard in Carp in a small flock of Black-capped Chickadees. Also, 5 Evening Grosbeaks and 1 Pine Siskin were observed. There has been at least 3 reports of Gray Jays in this past week in the Ottawa-Gatineau area: 1 at Britannia, 1 in Alymer and 2 birds in the Gatineau Park along Eardley-Masham Rd., maybe the start of a small southbound flight. If you require additional information please email me privately.
Good birding, Bruce
