I am interested in birding there and Riverwood Park this spring. Could you tell me where it is? I found nothing about directions to Cawthra Bush on the internet, but did find the website for Riverwood Park.

I believe the C.Bush mentioned is the one at Cawthra and S.Service Rd. (enter E.side of Cawthra S. of QEW) As far as birding goes I haven't had a huge amount of success there and have found Riverwood MUCH better because of a wider range of habitats and size. I cannot speak for Salamanders.

And if you could, we'd wonder how you figured out how to interpret their speach.  :P  :lol:

Other than a nice deer, I've seen very little at Riverwood. I guess I'll have to go back there.
