Very elusive and did not co-operate for a photo!

There were four individuals here, including two in a wheel,. This population seems to be resident as I’ve had them here the past four years. Very likely my earliest ever.

Samuel Smith Park

There may only be one or two individuals here. It seems I’ve photographed this individual several times, note the evidence of buckshot on the carapace.

Continuing bird

My latest in the province

Black and white barred underwing and undertail, double wing flash, short, blunt central rects, heavy bodied and broad winged. Lazily moving south onshore with HERG.

terrible light but great bird :)

This was a heavily debated bird. On the sight it was identified as a pom, but other skilled birders lean towards PAJA. Not sure myself.

New for my 5MR. One of two.

lightt morph juv., came off lake passed nearly overhead and continued inland almost without pause - my 2nd Lambton record

Female ovipositing in wet meadow, which is now fen-like. Male patrolling nearby. Horrible pic but it’s the best I have so far.
