Birds of High Park, Toronto

As many Torontonians know, High Park is the place to be not only for birding, but also for a nice stroll in the park.Grenadier Pond provides a good water source for all birds, and a variety of birds breed and migrate through High Park's mixed habitats.

This morning I was there for a bird outing, but the trip turned more into a photography trip. I was met there by posing, unafraid birds of all kinds; here are some of the best shots.
