Hello Birders.
Thursday morning, while looking for juv. FORSTERS and Juv. COMMON TERNS
fishing off KETTLE POINT there were three Juvenile plumaged LITTLE GULLS
fishing also. They still had remnants of the blackish mantle, not seen in
the Fall.
The birds moved off to the N.E. in the direction of Grand Bend and
were lost from sight.
Kettle Point and the Pinery are situated off Highway 21 N. of
Sarnia and W. of London Ont.
As a PS. A bird calling like a LONG-BILLED CURLEW flew inland,
high over my head while I was at the Visitor Center in the Pinery
Provincial Park early this afternoon. It kept calling repeatedly until it
passed from my hearing heading almost due South.
This note is intended as an FYI in case anyone else thinks that
they are 'Seeing things'
Good Birding. Alf Rider.
