RAPTORS AND VULTURES

of Southern Ontario

There are many raptors and vultures in across North America, including Southern Ontario, such as the graceful Turkey Vulture which spends the summers in this area, the Bald Eagle and the Red Tailed Hawk and other birds of prey.

Many birds of prey migrate through this area in the Autumn on their way to their southern wintering grounds.

They can be observed during the fall at several points along the Lake Erie shoreline, including Hawk Cliff, which is east of Port Stanley, south of St Thomas.
