Subject: [Ontbirds] Bluebird and Red-necked Grebes - Ottawa
From: Brian_Mortimer <brian_mortimer(AT)carleton.ca>
Date: 4 Apr 2010 11:29am
This morning at 8:00 there were three Red-Necked Grebe straight out from the
parking lot at Shirley's Bay, in the west end of Ottawa. Later, at 10:30 am,
I found one male Bluebird at the most northerly nesting boxes on Bowesville
road. Tree Swallows are in abundance today and a few cowbirds.
Directions:
The Shirleyıs Bay parking lot and boat launch is at the north end of Rifle
Road which is on the north side of Carling Avenue west of Moodie Drive.
For Bowesville Road:
Travel south on Riverside until it becomes Limebank (new route), then left
on Leitrem along the southern perimeter of Uplands Airport. Take the first
right; this is Bowesville.

Subject: [Ontbirds] A call of Red-headed Woodpecker sightings!
From: Barbara Frei <frei.bb(AT)gmail.com>
Date: 4 Apr 2010 11:47am
Dear Ontbirders,
Starting this spring and continuing for the next 3 years, I will be
studying Red-headed Woodpeckers in the Northumberland and Peterborough
counties of central Ontario. And I can use all the help I can get to
locate these beautiful and swiftly declining birds. If you have any
sightings this year or know of areas with past sightings or are a
landowner/know a landowner with appropriate habitat (old woodlots,
fencerows, etc.) I would love to hear from you!
This study is part of my Ph.D. research and the findings will be
shared directly with Nature Conservancy Canada and the Ontario
Ministry of Natural Resources to push for conservation and recovery
actions for this species in Ontario.
Help me discover why this birds is disappearing from Ontario and
across its entire range!
If you have any sightings, landowner contacts or questions please
contact me at: barbara.frei(AT)mail.mcgill.ca
I look forward to hearing from you! Happy Birding.
Cheers,
Barbara Frei, M.Sc.
