Announcement!
We have confirmed breeding evidence for Hooded Merganser at Ruthven! Linda and Al Thrower discovered 10 HOME eggs (and a female) in one of the Wood Duck boxes they're monitoring along the river.
Established in 1996, Haldimand Bird Observatory operates three stations: Selkirk Provincial Park, Rock Point Banding Station (both on the north shore of Lake Erie) and Ruthven Park near Cayuga, Ontario.
In spring, banding and a daily census are done from approximately the third weekend in March to the first weekend in June and, in fall, from the third weekend in July to the first weekend in November.
