This morning I found a Townsend's Solitaire in Joe Sams Park, just north of Waterdown.

Hi Jan,

Amazing find. Could you provide specifics of where in the park it was?

Best,

Ezra

Sorry for the delay. Was gone all afternoon.

From the parking lot at Centre Road the paved trail goes through the sport fields section, up-hill, turns right and bends left again. The area where I saw the bird is across from the "platinum jubilee treaty forest" and just as the trail turns right again. There is also a side trail in that area that goes down to the creek.
