I was traveling along the St Lawrence River via Rte 2 between  
Lancaster and Morrisburg this afternoon ( 3pm ).  Just east of  
Cornwall near Gray's Creek I saw a large number of Canada Geese.  As  
I was looking them over, lots of Snow Geese suddenly came in, most of  
them immediately tucking in for a sleep.  The Canadas were restless  
and many took off northward, presumably looking for fields..............

Going further east on Rte 2, I saw more Canada Geese and Snow Geese  
beside the eastern end of Long Sault Parkway, right by the causeway.

Finally going back to Ottawa via Hwy 31 from Morrisburg, There was a  
lovely Red-shouldered Hawk on the side of Leitrim, near Albion  
( airport side).

Rte 2 can be reached from the 401 ( take Cornwall or Summerstown  
exit) and Rte 31 is Bank St in Ottawa and can be reached both by the  
401 and the 417.

Cheers, Eve
