Hi Ontbirders,
Today around 12 noon we found a juvenile Western Sandpiper at the former
Grimsby/Winona sewage lagoons. It was in the northmost lagoon, now drawn
down, with Semipalmated Sandpipers and a good variety of shorebirds. It was
seen later by many other birders.
Directions: The lagoons are on the north side of Winston Road between the
Cassandra Blvd and 50 Road exits from the QEW, between the big field with
electrical/radio towers and the Winona Rifle Range.
Today also was a fine day at Van Wagners Beach in Hamilton. We saw several
adult and juvenile Parasitic Jaegers, juvenile Sabine's Gull and juvenile
Black-legged Kittiwake.
Good birding,
Jean Iron and Ron Pittaway
