Ontbirders, Yes, I am still alive. I still do look at birds! And here is a post for down south here is Essex County.
Early afternoon Saturday Oct.20/07 my uncle and I observed a dark Ibis flying from west to east through the center of Hillman Marsh. When the bird arrived to the beach it turned around and few back the same flight path heading west. I did not get close views however a nice sight no matter what species. The Ducks Unlimited/ERCA shorebird/waterfowl cell is being filled slowly and perhaps it may have went there.(?) Perhaps I may look for it later and try for a closer look. In the WSW 50+km/h winds today American Kestrels were moving but that was about it for note worthy migrants. Also 9 White-rumped sandpipers. Good Birding, Dean Ware Wheatley ON.
