20 pp. "The south shore of Lake Ontario is an important staging area for migrating birds during the spring. It serves as both corridor and concentration point to northbound birds who depend on its forested and brushy areas for food and cover. Much of Lake Ontario's coast is privately owned. However the Edge Walker's Guide to Lake Shore Birdwatching locates and describes a dozen good public areas for bird watching along the shoreline between Rochester and Oswego. The pamphlet contains seasonal notes on the best time to visit each area and what you're likely to see. The guide also includes useful websites for local birding and a brief description of several nationally known birding areas on Lake Ontario as well as resources for land owners interested in improving habitat for migrant birds." ABOUT THE AUTHOR: "Susan Peterson Gateley's articles about Lake Ontario have run in numerous local and national publications and she has authored 4 full length books. She holds a Coast Guard license and offers sailing charters."
