There's a large flock of Bonaparte's gulls at the Wiarton sewage lagoons in various stages of moult including one adult in full breeding plumage. Also mallards, Wood Duck, Shoveller, Blue-wing Teal, juvenile Merganser and a juvenile Pied- billed Grebe doing its very cool sinking routine.
The lagoons behind the Independent Store in Port Elgin had Semi-palmated and Least Sandpipers, Semi-palmated Plover, Killdeer, Spotted Sandpiper, Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs. The large flocks of swallows observed over the past few weeks were noticibly absent today. Cindy Cartwright Saugeen Shores -
