Young Birds & The First Fall Migrants – Ottawa West with Always an Adventure

Tuesday July 15

Today there are Gary & Sue, Lorraine, Tony & Nina and me.  We spent a good amount of time walking around both parts of Andrew Haydon Park seeking out young birds.  We went for coffee, then out to Richmond Area and beyond.  We came back via Burnside pit, then went to Shirley's Bay checking both the river and adjacent roads.
