Saw these Helmeted Guineafowl escapees on my way to the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher today.  They were at Hwy 109 and Dufferin County Rd. 11.

Hey!

We have spotted these guys in that area before. Once on a little detour West along 109 near county rd 12

they caused traffic to come to a stop.

I have also spotted them along hwy 3 east of Dunnville.

Napper :))

We will be heading up that way today on our way to Tiny.
