The American Coot at Stevermans Lake in Lilydale originally found by Kevin =
Lantz about a month ago was still present today.  Also in Lilydale was a ma=
le and female northern cardinal.  Another northern cardinal female was at t=
he bottom of Dufferin Street=2C Lunenburg not far from the Knot Pub. =20
=20
The Lark Sparrow was present again today behind Sleepy Hollow Apartments bu=
ilding 290 along Dufferin Street.
=20
At Back Harbour Lunenburg near the park were 31 red-breasted mergansers and=
 31 common goldeneyes.
=20
At Back Oler Farm Marsh in Garden Lots there was an American Wigeon.  Not a=
 common duck for this neck of the woods.
=20
Also at Back Oler/Front Oler Farm Marsh in Garden Lots were 72 American Bla=
ck Ducks=2C 31 mallards=2C 37 Hooded Mergansers=2C 36 Common Mergansers=2C =
and 8 red-breasted mergansers. =20
=20
At Bayport=2C but actually across the bay on the back side of Feltzen South=
 were 90 Canada geese and the scaup flock as far as I can tell is over 400 =
now.  Due to the distance I would say all greater scaup.  They were too far=
 away to determine how many might have been lessers. =20
