We still have a great deal of snow on the ground along the north shore of Lake Ontario, but large numbers of migrating birds are arriving. Thousands of ducks have stopped to rest and feed in Presqu'ile Bay. Flocks of red-winged blackbirds and robins are arriving, as well as other migrants such as killdeer plovers. Warblers generally do not arrive until the weather is much warmer, but I am posting a very early report below.
In other parts of Ontario, we hear of large flocks of tundra swans arriving, as well as a movement of raptors such as hawks and eagles across their traditional migratory paths, such as the Beamer Hawk Watch near Beamer, Ontario (on the Niagara escarpment towards Niagara Falls).
