We went to Wheeler's Maple Bush near McDonald's Corners for a sweet lunch and hike around the grounds.
We drove to the sugar bush via Co Rd 12, so decided to cross the Mississippi and return on Co Rd 8. This turned out to be a great decision.
From the bridge, we saw a number of ducks, and jsut around the corner, we encountered a cooperative Red-shouldered Hawk.
Shortly after that, a Red-tailed Hawk flew low right in front of the car and disappeared behind the tree line. Then, we screeched to a stop as a pair of Trumpeter Swans were in a small pond right beside the road.
We proceed to Wolf Grove Road where we saw 3 American Kestrels and a male Northern Harrier.
Back on 417, we decided to have a look for ravens at the CTC, but there was no sign on them yet.
