Last night after a day of hawk watching at Beamer, Terrie Smith and I stopped at the 10th line in Stoney Creek and saw the bird about 5:30 p.m. - excellent views in the evening sunlight. As we watched form the main trial, I was dismayed to see four photographers, wading in the ponded area (one with shoes and socks off) stalking the bird to get their shots. As we arrived the bird was in taller vegetation and the photographers approached it until it flew to a more open area. It is my understanding from personal communications with several photographers that many photographers now monitor Ontbirds to find out where rare/uncommon birds are being found. If you (birders or photographers) choose to go see something reported on Ontbirds please respect the Ontario Field Ornithologists Code of Ethics. If you're unsure what these are pls visit OFOs website at http://www.ofo.ca/aboutus/ethics.php Directions: 10th road is located on the Niagara escarpment between Grimsby and Stoney Creek. Directions below are provided by a local Model Plane Flying place which is located on 10th Road. >From the QEW either Toronto or Niagara bound exit at fifty road and turn south directly up the mountain. Once on the top of the mountain you will come to a stop sign at Ridge road. Turn right approximately 1 km to the first road you come to on the left ( 10th road), turn left and follow approximately 1 km to field on left side. >From Mud St either direction turn north on 10th road to Green Mountain, slight jog right then left again on 10th.
