Dan Kazinski found a near breeding plumaged Pacific Loon this morning at Thickson Point at 10am.
At 11am, he and I watched it fly out into the Lake and land south-west of Thickson Point. Directions: exit 401 at Thickson Road go south to a small parking lot on your right near the bottom then walk west on the transcanada trail until you see a large blue sign that says Thickson Point turn left (south) on a very small dirt trail, follow that to the shore, keep going west along the shore follow to an obvious point of land going out into the lake which is Thickson Point scan to the south-west for the bird I didn't see the bird very well because it was already in flight, but Dan's description was excellent.
