Hi everyone, Today (May 7) at around 7:00 p.m. I had a breeding plumaged Piping = Plover feeding along the shoreline on Burlington Beach. The bird was = approximately 500 metres north of the lift bridge and was moving north = as it fed (towards Spencer Smith Park). Also, the bird was = colour-banded, with the right leg having three bands: the top band was = green, the middle orange, and the lower looked to be a standard steel = band; all three bands were below the 'knee' joint. Thanks, Ian Richards Directions: Burlington Beach can be reached by taking the Brant Street exit from the = Q.E.W. and following it south until it deadends at Lakeshore Road. Turn = right (west) and proceed to the first set of lights - turning left here = enters into Spencer Smith Park. Walking south from Spencer Smith Park = leads to Burlington Beach almost immediately. The beach can also be = accessed by proceeding to the next set of lights and continuing on = Lakeshore Road by turning left (south). There are a number of parking = lots on the left that give access to the beach all the way south to the = lift bridge.

Just before I reached the next crossroad, a Great Egret rose up from the left side ditch. The green lores were clearly visible. Another car behind me stopped to look but the bird flew off towards the Point. I didn't see any other reports of this bird so thought I should report it. Sue Stam [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gilford ON
