Morris Island - Forest and Wetlands - Ottawa West with Tony & Nina

Thursday Jun 21, 7:30 am

We met at Andrew Haydon  Park - Tony Nina, Antonia, Pavel, Peter, Rick, Al, and me.  Rick and Peter were just back from a fabulous trip to Alaska https://picasaweb.google.com/109242959429802126570/AlaskaJune2012?authkey=Gv1sRgCJGs253CqurHIg&feat=email#

We got a few common birds at the park before car-pooling to Morris Island, past Fitzroy Harbour.  We spent our whole morning there enjoying a variety of habitats and birds on this very hot summer day.
