Today Ian Cannell found the 2 Purple Sandpipers above the barge above the Falls as well as an adult Lesser black-backed Gull and we had a Thayer's Gull at the Sand Docks ( now out of bounds and fenced in and the road closed ) and on the way home we stopped at Gray Road in Stoney Creek and the adult male Barrow's Goldeneye was still there in close and easily seen . You can also find all 3 Scoter species and Red-throated Loons off of Gray and Green Roads.

For Lawrence Sayer’s Park you can turn right off Gray Road just before you get to the lake and drive to the park (obey the no parking signs here as others have received a ticket). Or you can drive straight down Drake to the park from the Service Road.
