Downsview, today

[Napper]

I spotted a Northern harrier this morning 9:30
at Downsview airfield, Just East of the tracks and little Pond.
It was skimming low over the grass near the Soccer park.

Funny, I reported a Northern Harrier Monday North of hwy 89 near hwy 124

I saw 17 killdeer fly over head through Downsview today.  I have never seen that many before, all in the air too!

Hey

I spotted a Hummingbird today around 3:15 while I was leaving work.
It was heading for Downsview park, flying over top of me and one
of our (low ceiling ) assembly buildings adjacent the tracks.

I have never seen a hummingbird in Downsview Park, it is great that you saw one!  You should upload it to ebird.org.  Downsview Park has a hotspot so all of the sightings in the Park can be reported to one spot.  Apparently there have been 85 species reported in Downsview in a year and a half.  This would be 86!

Keep up the good work!

I saw a hummingbird there on saturday (14th) morning/early afternoon. It was buzzing around some of the flowers in the garden on the north side of the Big Pond.
I didn't get a picture of it though...
