Deep in the bushes he flies and cannot be found again.
Wendy great job.

| Stacey Toronto Wildlife rescue staff gets ready to release an Osprey. Osprey was captured by road crew who noticed the osprey was not flying. Eye treatment and a bit of fresh fish and he was ready to be released when found. |
 |
| Taking a peak out to see where he was |
 |
| And away he goes. Strong flight right over the park and back on the migration route. |
 |
| Thank you Stacey for letting me watch |

| How often do you see a wood duck, a baby muskrat and a frog in a shot. |
 |
| Lower Reesor Pond was destroyed by TRCA. All the water gone but this tiny pond. But in the pond were 4 muskrats, 4 wood ducks, 6 mallards, frogs many of them, killdeer, kingbirds, robins, tailless sparrow and more. |
