People:
Trudy, Mark, Lee, Arvo, Norm, Terry, Betty, Leonardo, Peter, Allison, Carol, Sophie, Mikal, and a few others including a gentleman from the Cranberry Hawk Watch (sorry I didn't get your name) and Marty & Ginny (birders visiting Toronto from Madison, Wisconsin). Today's Osprey flew low and straight over the center of the park while Marty and I were chatting. Nice of the bird to demonstrate the terrific view we get at Rosetta of the hawks. Also many Blue Jays were passing by low overhead as well during their time with us.
Weather Prediction:
South wind tomorrow! Maybe a Jaeger out on the lake?!!!
