Title: Harlequin still there, two Glaucous Gulls Humber Bay East
Post by: Iain on February 05, 2007, 06:12:00 PM

Went out yesterday afternoon and spotted the male Harlequin farther south than it has previously been reported.  It had moved right around to the south side of the eastern point with a group of Red-breasted Mergansers.  Also had two juvenile Glaucous Gulls and several Juvenile Great-black backed Gulls farther west, midway up the outlet of the creek that seperates Humber Bay East and Humber Bay West (where all the Canada Geese and Ring-bills hang out).

Good Birding,

Iain

Hi Dee,

Humber Bay Park East is located south of the Park Lawn Rd. and Lakeshore Blvd. W intersection (in the west end, south-west of High Park and Bloor.  There is a Park Lawn Rd. exit ramp off of the Gardiner only if you're coming from the west so take Lakeshore Blvd if you're heading in from the East.  Go south on Park Lawn through Lakeshore Blvd when you come to the intersection.  You'll find places to park on your right and I advise doing a loop of the whole park (its not very big).

Hope that helps, goodluck.

Iain
