Birders,
At 11:30 there was a adult Greater White-fronted Goose in the front field of
Jack Miners. It was quite funny how I found the bird. I pulled up in my
vehicle put the scope on the window mount, then placed it on the window
looked in it and the bird was smack dab in the center, without focusing!
Also in the field where 3500 Canadas and 2 Lesser Snows which have also been
visiting the Hillman Marsh Shorebird Habitat. Jack Miners is 3km north of
Kingsville.
Lighthouse Cove: A few birds of interest:
A Hermaphrodite Mallard..?. Yes, a female Mallard with 90% male plumage!
located Amongst 100's of Tundra Swans at the end(north) of County rd.37.
Richardson's Goose ..same spot.
Common Redpolls 5 "
A male Wood Duck was on the east side of Lighthouse Cove which is north of
the town of Tilbury. I took county rd. 37 from Hillman Marsh all the way
(north) to Lake St.Clair and then at the lake I drove east for 2km.
Happy New Year,
Dean Ware
