Hello,

Today I was out with Downsview Park's  March Break Camp on a nature walk when we saw some recent arrivals.  Here is what we saw:

20 Canada Goose
7 Red-tailed Hawk
30 Ring-billed Gull
2 Rock Pigeon
2 American Kestrel
4 American Robin
3 Northern Mockingbird
25 European Starling
1 Northern Cardinal
6 Red-winged Blackbird

Spring is nearly here!

Enter at John Drury off of Sheppard (East of Keele and West of Dufferin/Allen) and go on Canuck until you see parking.  See map below. Hopefully that helps:
