On Sunday , August 29th Ken Cohen and I had 13 species of shorebirds at
Rock Point Provincial Park plus Black-bellied and American Golden
Plovers at the turf farms along
Regional Route 3. The big find was an immature Lark Sparrow on the
beach at Rock
Point. We observed the bird at very close range for about 10 minutes
using both binoculars and scopes. Ken tried to get a picture but was
not successful. The shorebirds
were basically the same as reported by Mike Hamilton for the BOS trip.
Rock Point Prov, Park is 3 miles southeast of Dunnville on the Lake
Erie shoreline.
The turf farms are along Regional Route 3 just south of Poth Road.
